Just when it seemed to be over, Croteam and Devolver Digital have announced The Talos Principle 3, the actual “last step” in the series. Launching in 2027 for PS5 and PC, it sees players navigating the Anomaly, where the laws of physics don’t apply. Check out the announcement trailer below.
What happened, and why do some of these locations seem familiar? It’s your job to find out and solve puzzles along the way, and Croteam promised both “familiar and all-new mechanics” in the game’s Steam listing. As usual, you can prioritize what’s necessary to progress the story or “pursue the deeper secrets” of the Anomaly. We’re guessing the latter holds the key to unlocking the true ending.
Either way, this marks the finale of The Talos Principle series and features stunning locales, from a desert planet being terraformed to lush gardens. Composer Damjan Mravunac also returns to craft a brand new soundtrack.
Stay tuned for more details in the coming months, or check out The Talos Principle 2, which is currently available for PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S. Why is the third game skipping Microsoft’s console at launch? Your guess is as good as ours. There’s also The Talos Principle: Reawakened, a remaster of the first game that includes revamped visuals, the expansion, and even some new content with In the Beginning.
