Telltale Games’ sci-fi adventure, The Expanse, has made its highly anticipated debut on Steam after being exclusive to the Epic Games Store for four months. With this release, PC gamers now have access to the full series of five episodes, which were previously available on PlayStation, Xbox, and the Epic Store. In addition, players can purchase the bonus DLC, Archangel, separately.
The Expanse: A Telltale Series serves as a prequel to the popular sci-fi TV show of the same name, providing fans with an immersive experience as they navigate through the Belt alongside Cara Gee’s character, Camina Drummer. Drummer, the executive officer aboard The Artemis spaceship, relies on players’ decisions to successfully overcome the challenges they encounter.
