About The Expanse: A Telltale Series

Experience the exciting universe of The Expanse like never before in Telltale’s latest adventure, The Expanse: A Telltale Series. Take on the role of Camina Drummer and explore the dangerous and uncharted edges of the Belt aboard the Artemis. From scavenging wrecked ships in a zero-g environment, to surviving a mutiny, to combating fearsome pirates, you make the difficult choices and reveal Camina Drummer’s resolve in this latest Telltale adventure.

A TELLTALE STORY LIKE NO OTHER

Immerse yourself in the role of Camina Drummer, the Executive Officer aboard the Artemis, a scavenging ship hunting for a big score in the outer regions of the Belt. You must corral a crew rife with tense relationships and powerful personalities, and make tough decisions that will decide everyone’s fate.

EXPLORE THE BELT IN ZERO-G

Scour shipwrecks, use mag boots to walk on walls and ceilings, and utilize zero-g thrusters to float through the void. As you fly through sections of ships and the open expanse of space, interact with objects in the world and converse with members of the crew in the largest and most immersive exploration of any Telltale game to date.

DIFFICULT CHOICES, GRAVE CONSEQUENCES

Contend with the unforgiving brutality of space, the politics of a corrupt solar system, the animosities of your crew, and Drummer’s own conflicting responsibilities to the people she cares about and the Belt she has sworn to protect. There is no right or wrong path - only your choices and the consequences they unleash.

INCLUDES ALL 5 EPISODES

Episode 1: Archer's Paradox
Episode 2: Hunting Grounds

Story

Show

A choice-driven episodic adventure set before the events of the television series, The Expanse: A Telltale Series casts players as Camina Drummer, the executive officer of the Artemis, an independent salvage vessel roaming the far reaches of the Solar System. Life aboard the ship is a hard scrape, its crew surviving by scavenging abandoned and derelict spacecraft for valuable parts and cargo, drifting through the dangerous silence of deep space in zero gravity. The story turns when the Artemis comes upon a wrecked ship carrying an extraordinarily valuable cargo, a discovery that promises to change the fortunes of everyone aboard. Yet the decision to claim that prize sets off a chain of consequences no one can fully foresee, testing loyalties among the crew and drawing them into escalating danger. As Drummer, the player must weigh difficult choices in dialogue and action, choices that shape relationships and steer the fate of the Artemis and its people.
