The Expanse: A Telltale Series makes its way out of Epic Games Store limbo and on to Steam today. Today's Steam release looks to include all of the episodic game and also includes the bonus episode starring Shohreh Aghdashloo as Chrisjen Avasarala.
The Expanse's first episode hit the Epic Games Store in July with the final episode coming out just this September. So, the wait for today's Steam release was not very long in the slightest.
Sadly, in the time following the release of The Expanse, a significant portion of Telltale Games was once again laid off. The news didn't break until October, but most of the staff was allegedly let go in September.
The Expanse: A Telltale Series is set before the events of Alcon Television Group’s critically acclaimed and award-winning television series which streams on Amazon Prime Video. Players take on the role of Camina Drummer (played by actress Cara Gee in both the game and TV series), the XO of a scavenger crew on the hunt for a mysterious treasure on the edges of The Belt. As Drummer, players must deal with a mix of powerful personalities, square off against a bloody mutiny, explore locations beyond The Belt and, most of all, make tough decisions that will decide the fate of The Artemis crew. Scour shipwrecks, use mag boots to walk on walls and ceilings, and utilize Zero-G thrusters to float through sections of ships and the open expanse of space in the largest and most immersive exploration of any Telltale game to date.
