Stupid Question: How do I start the new DLC

I havent played the game for years and I am happy to play the new DLC. But how?
*stumped*
The title screen just informs me that I have it installed.

You need to finish the game (no need to start NG+) and (Mild ending spoilers) get the good ending , and just walk right in the weird space room. More precisely, (big ending spoilers) right when the last Chapter is started (when you log back to CrossWorlds inside the First Scholars HQ and C'Tron approaches you about permanently leaving CrossWorlds soon), talk to Hlin, she will say where Albert is supposed to be. You need to find and talk to Albert there and then follow Sergey's instruction on that "mini quest".

And if you are somehow unable to find what you are looking for just as Sabotague said then I'll tell you where it is. Its a spoil so dont read if you wish to do it yourself.

Albert is in Lloyd Passage in Rhombus Square, the bottom right corner of the map if you dont have it. He is upstairs if you are not good at searching, sitting at a bottom left corner of the place.

hey thank you guys!!! I have finished CC some odd years ago after over 100 hours. I am pretty sure I had the good ending and the was some sort of waystation. So there is no need for spoiler-warning - for me at least. I remember the "weird space room" I just can't remember how to get back there. is there a quick way to teleport back? or is the dlc automatically started when I load my last save (which must have been after the ending i presume) - Anyway it is a bit confusing I have to say. :-/

Well since you are well aware I'll cut out the spoilers.

Since you've already done it, there should be 2 paths. Left side of the path takes you back to Chapter 10, which is the past. Right side takes you to the future, which is the DLC.

I never taken left, but I heard you should have the ability to skip everything and get to the final boss fight which takes you back at that "weird space room". So when you do get back there, go right. You'll play the DLC directly.

If you are unable to do it, its usually because you got the bad ending. Unless you never owned the DLC, then that could probably be the reason.

Also if you happen to go right and unaware, well you know now that you are currently playing the DLC. Right side takes you straight to the DLC.

So i need to fight the boss again, to get back to the space room? I remember there was a way which foreshadowed the dlc, called "epilogue" or something. But again, looong time ago ;) btw, loved this game.

Yeah, the right side kinda acted as a epilogue but also a new chapter. But yeah you have to fight that boss again just to get back to that space room. Then you go right.

Oh boy. I guess it is good to get back into the mechanics. And one more question: do i need to remember the map well for the dlc or do they ease me into it? Did the developers have in mind that many people haven't played the game for many years? Is it worth it to play game +? And thanks for your help!

Technically you would need to play through the last chapter, but if somehow you got an end-game save, just made in a location that might not suggest the game has been completed, you can just do side stuff with Albert and Ivan, then go to Vermilion as usual, and everything in Vermilion is skippable (fixating Evotars, all puzzles and fights in the tower, both final battles). This won't be useful if you legitimately no longer have a save that ever saw the completion of the game.

Maybe somewhere on your list there is a save that lists your current location as "Meta-Space". That's the space room from where you start the dlc. And there would be a star on the save, under the word "Lvl" (unless it depends on the screen resolution), indicating the save is ready for the DLC.

The DLC has a new composer. You will hear both new and old tracks in the dlc. Maybe it's just a personal thing but if I didn't know the new tracks were made by a new person, I would never tell by myself just from listening and playing, so it's not some jarring transition from one style to another.

Okay thank you guys, i think i will get by. I'm sad to hear that deniz isn't back, he did such incredible work. But i will be open minded for the new content. I saw the dlc during sale and i almost feel bad for buying it discounted.
