Croteam and Devolver Digital have revealed the first gameplay of The Talos Principle 3, the final game in the philosophical puzzle trilogy, at the Triple-I Initiative showcase. The game lands in 2027 on PC and PlayStation 5.

The Talos Principle 3 takes place in a world called the Anomaly, described as a contradictory landscape of crumbling temples and abandoned science outposts where the laws of physics don’t function normally. Players wake with fragmented memories and must solve increasingly complex puzzles while uncovering the story of humanity’s history across generations.

The game features new puzzle systems and environments alongside a generation-spanning narrative. According to the studio, players will explore dozens of new worlds, each with unique stories, puzzles, and characters.
