Nighthawk Interactive, in partnership with game developer Croteam and indie publisher Devolver, today announced the retail launch of The Talos Principle: Deluxe Edition for PlayStation© 4. Based on the award-winning PC game, written by Tom Jubert (FTL, The Swapper) and Jonas Kyratzes (Infinite Ocean), The Talos Principle is a cryptic and thought-provoking, metaphysical parable about intelligence and meaning in an inevitably doomed world. Following its late 2014 release on Steam, The Talos Principle immediately earned broad critical and player acclaim – and is now available on PS4™ at GameStop, Best Buy, Amazon and other retail locations, and via download at the PlayStation© Store, in North and South America.
Players are woven into The Talos Principle on an existential journey as a sentient artificial intelligence placed in a simulation of humanity’s greatest ruins, and linked together through an arcane cathedral. Guided by the ethereal voice of Elohim, players embark on a journey to discover whether machine and man are one by solving a series of increasingly complex puzzles in an artistically beautiful simulation.
The Talos Principle: Deluxe Edition includes:
· Complex Conundrums – more than 120 immersive puzzles through the eyes of an advanced artificial intelligence construct;
· Historic Representations – sophisticated technology furnished by the creators to unravel each predicament entombed within digital recreations of humanity’s ruins;
· Croteam Technology – Croteam’s Serious Engine 4 technology, the next advancement in the engine behind the Serious Sam series;
· The Talos Principle: Road to Gehenna Expansion Content from the PC Version – four additional episodes from the pens of Tom Jubert and Jonas Kyratzes to expand the story of self-discovery.
“The Talos Principle: The Deluxe Edition is the perfect game for audiences to lose themselves in the philosophy-driven, mind-bending world and puzzles created by the talented team at Croteam,” said Joseph Sutton, president, Nighthawk Interactive. “It’s only a matter of time before PS4 fans will finally experience why the PC version, from renowned indie publisher Devolver Digital, quickly became a critically-acclaimed must-play for fans of deeply immersive, complex puzzle games.”
The Talos Principle: Deluxe Edition for PS4 has an ESRB rating of 10+ and retails for $49.99.
