According to the title’s Steam page, the expansion is a “rogue-like” twist on the gameplay of the original where time only moves when the player does. The Steam Early Access version will feature:

  • First 2 playable MINDS, each with it’s own unique ability and gameplay modifiers.
  • A kaleidoscope of the first dozen new gameplay levels that mix into the first few dozen combat challenges.
  • New animation and AI systems to drive new weapons, abilities, and enemy types.
  • Hitpoint system and power-up store to give you that extra oompf needed to crush your enemies and see them driven before you.
  • Procedural rogue-like run generation baked into the core gameplay loop, enabling us to tell longer, more complex stories and deliver tons more of satisfying skill-based gameplay.

The Steam Early Access title will be sold at a reduced price while in development, while the finished game will retail for $25. It has only been announced for Steam, and those who already own the original Superhot will receive the standalone expansion for free when the full version is expected to release in 9-12 months, or “autumn-ish 2018.”
