The Expanse is getting the game treatment, thanks to Telltale Games

Developer Deck 9 may have just shipped Life is Strange: True Colors, but that is not slowing them down as they have revealed their next title and it is with Telltale Games, yep that Telltale Games and it is The Expanse, based off the Amazon show of the same name.

The Expanse: A Telltale Series is set prior to the events of the TV series. Players take on the role of Camina Drummer (played by actress Cara Gee in both the game and TV series), the leader of a ragtag scavenging crew on the hunt for a mysterious treasure on the edges of The Belt. When a bloody mutiny breaks loose on the Artemis, the choices that you make will determine the fate of the ship. What will you do with the truth, Bosmang?

“Working with a fantastic IP like The Expanse is both daunting and thrilling,” said Jeff Litchford, COO for Deck Nine. “We wanted to pick a character and story that hadn’t already been told – one that players could really influence but that also stayed true to the books and series for the fans. The collaboration with Telltale has enabled us to bounce around ideas and approach things from the different perspectives each company brings to the adventure genre as we work to tell the best story possible.”

“The Expanse is a deep world full of political nuance and complex characters that evolve yet are flawed; it’s been such a joy to be able to delve into the individual side stories throughout the books and six seasons of the show,” said George Collins, President of Alcon Interactive Group. “Collaborating with two of the most prominent studios known for their work in narrative games is exciting, and we are confident The Expanse is in good hands. There is so much left to explore in new ways and we plan to do so as long as the fans keep showing up.”
