Telltale Games announced on Thursday that a bonus episode of its The Expanse video game is now out, offering up a new perspective on the previously released series.
The new bonus episode, titled Archangel, stars Shohreh Aghdashloo, who reprises her role as Chrisjen Avasarala, Secretary-General of the United Nations in The Expanse. The game follows Avasarala as she must manage various conflicts in the solar system, navigate political drama amongst her peers and other rivals, and deal with family drama.
The bonus episode to The Expanse: A Telltale Series will be available later this year. The game had previously wrapped up earlier this year with the release of its fifth episode, titled Europa’s Folly.

What is The Expanse: A Telltale Series about?
The Expanse: A Telltale Series is Telltale’s first new title since the company was reformed in 2019 and is set prior to the events of the hit television series. Players control Camina Drummer (played by actress Cara Gee in both the game and TV show) to hunt for treasures on The Belt, explore space, and more.
The Expanse was a high-action, realistic sci-fi adventure that unfolds across a colonized galaxy 200 years in the future. It broadens the vision of humanity’s path in the future as well as a deeply-felt examination of the most critical, raw, and pressing issues of today. The series starred Steven Strait, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Dominique Tipper, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Cara Gee, Wes Chatham, Frankie Adams, Keon Alexander, Nadine Nicole, and Jasai Chase Owens.
The Expanse is based on the bestselling book series by Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck (under the pen name James S. A. Corey). It is co-created and written by Academy Award nominees Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby (Children of Men). Fergus and Ostby are also executive producing alongside showrunner Naren Shankar (Almost Human, Grimm).
