The tour was first hinted at by guitarist and lead vocalist Matthew Bellamy's Twitter on 10 March 2015, with the tour being officially announced the next day on the band's Facebook page, along with the lyric video for "Psycho".

The dynamics of this tour were different from what Muse had used in the past few tours, where they relied heavily on theatrical stage-craft and production, this tour took the band into smaller venues around the UK and the United States, the stage design was only a simple lighting rig and, for all but one concert, a backdrop displaying the cover art of their upcoming album, Drones. The band had not played in many of the venues since the Origin of Symmetry tour which took place from 2001 to 2002.[1]

The band was supported by Marmozets on the tour.

Part of the tour also took place outside the UK in the United States.
