Five years ago today we have made something special. Out of nowhere, a team that was known for the absolutely chaotic Serious Sam series launched a much slower, calming game. Just like that, a philosophical puzzler The Talos Principle was born.
Over the course of five years, The Talos Principle has landed on all relevant platforms, traditional and VR, and none of that would be possible without your support.
So, thank you for your love over the years! If you're willing, share your favorite Talos experiences in the comments below, they always warm our hearts.

Hey everyone,
We've just released The Talos Principle VR Build 443779 and this one is small, but definitely not insignificant as it brings Index Controller support to the game. You'll now be able to track your finger movement, as well as use "grab" to get ahold of objects which will boost the immersion even further.
Of course, there are some tweaks and fixes that were done in the background, but nothing that would require an elaborate changelog.
Enjoy playing with your brand new controllers, and let us know if you have any worries or issues after this update.
Cheers,
Danny, on behalf of Croteam.

Hey folks. We did some more work on your favorite VR games, so here's a brand new update for you. This update focuses on Windows Mixed Reality headsets that are finally officially supported in all our VR games. Be prepared to enjoy custom controls, official ghost controllers and anything else you'd expect from Win MR support. The list of changes is posted below. - Windows MR headsets and controllers are now officially supported, with MR specific control schemes - fixed the problem with alt-tab not working correctly when VR's mirror was set to full-screen - fixed the problem with random teleporting when using custom teleport controls on Oculus - fixed the problem where players would be unable to jump out of the water while using teleport movement - Oculus ghost controller no longer hovers over player's hand - players should no longer get stuck when teleporting through open plasma walls *** As always - if you are having any issues with this build, the previous one is still available for opt-in, by doing this: - locate the game in the Steam's "Library" panel - right click and invoke "Properties" - select the "Betas" tab - choose "previousversion"

Another week, another release! That's just how we roll. :)
We are glad to let you know that The Talos Principle has finally the reality it was always supposed to be a part of, as we have released the eagerly awaited virtual reality reimagining on Steam for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift.
The Talos Principle VR is available with automatic 25% off for all existing owners of The Talos Principle. Along with the content available in the base game, the VR adaptation features the full Road to Gehenna expansion free of charge.
Redesigned from the ground up to provide virtual reality fans with the experience they have come to expect from Croteam, The Talos Principle VR introduces a fresh take to the contradictory world of ancient ruins and advanced technology. With roomscale support, four different movement presets and advanced VR controls, the game is perfectly suited for casual virtual reality gamers and enthusiasts alike.
"The VR reimagining truly is a homecoming moment for The Talos Principle. We have always felt this game was a perfect fit for virtual reality, and it turned out to be true. I can't wait for everyone to jump in and, hopefully, enjoy playing the game as much as we've enjoyed making it," said Croteam's TTPVR project lead and VR enthusiast Mario Kotlar.
