"I have always loved the intimate experience of audiobooks, radio and podcast dramas," Dan Houser said in a press release. "Audio fiction feels like a really compelling way to tell the story of the A BETTER PARADISE universe and the characters within it."

In addition to the audio series, Absurd Ventures revealed that they have multiple projects in "various stages of development" set in the A Better Paradise universe. This includes additional audio fiction seasons, television and video game titles. However, details of these projects have yet to be revealed.

"A BETTER PARADISE Volume One: An Aftermath" is set to premiere June 10 on all major podcast platforms, with new episodes to be released weekly throughout the summer.
