Life is Strange and The Expanse devs lay off 20% of studio in second wave of job losses in under a yearFeb 28, 2024 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunThe developers behind the Life is Strange remaster, spin-offs Before the Storm and True Colors, and The Expanse: A Telltale Series, Deck Nine, have laid off 20% of the studio’s staff due to “the game industry’s worsening market conditions”. The latest job losses are the second wave of layoffs at the company in the last 12 months. Read more Life Is Strange Remastered Collection is delayed until early 2022Aug 11, 2021 - Rock, Paper, ShotgunLife is going to be slightly less strange this September, it turns out. Real life will stay weird, I have no doubt, but Deck Nine's adventure dramas are getting a bit spread out. While Life Is Strange: True Colors will still be launching in September, the Remastered Collection planned for the end of the month is now being delayed to avoid putting too much pressure on the development team. We can now expect the remastered bits to come in early 2022. Another trailer for True Colors will land tomorrow as well.

Say goodbye to waiting for episodes – Life is Strange: True Colors releases in full on September 10 2021. The Life is Strange Remastered Collection will be available as part of the Life is Strange: True Colors Ultimate Edition, or standalone later this year. Pre-Order Now: https://sqex.link/y6x Life is Strange: True Colors is a gorgeous new chapter which ditches the series' episodic modelMar 18, 2021 - EurogamerSquare Enix has announced Life is Strange: True Colors, the next chapter in the narrative adventure anthology series. Ditching the series' previous episodic model, the entire story will release in one go for PC, PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and Stadia on 10th September. Set in the town of Haven Springs, True Colors stars Alex Chen, a new female Asian American protagonist, and feature a popular crossover character from Life is Strange prequel series Before the Storm. Here's our first look: True Colors is, as expected, developed by Before the Storm studio Deck Nine, with the prequel series' lead writer and game designer Zak Garriss now True Colors' director. During tonight's Square Enix Presents livestream, Garriss said Deck Nine had been working on the game since 2017. Read more NEW CAST. NEW POWER.

Proceedings get underway at 5pm in the UK/10am PDT, and Square promises 40 minutes of trailers and announcements. The world premiere of Life is Strange 3 (or whatever it ends up being called) is obviously the headliner, but there's quite a lot more besides. There'll be another look at Outriders, for instance, ahead of its launch on 1st April, as well as another airing for Balan Wonderland, which releases a little sooner, on 26th March. Read more There's changes afoot at Life is Strange creator DontnodJan 29, 2021 - EurogamerLife is Strange creator Dontnod has secured new funding to self-publish future games, sparking speculation it is no longer aligned with Square Enix, the publisher which oversees the Life is Strange franchise. Yesterday, Dontnod announced a €30m (£26.5m) financing deal with Chinese tech giant Tencent for "new self-published intellectual properties" - a plan first mentioned to GamesIndustry.biz in an interview last November. Dontnod has worked with various publishers in the past, including Focus Home Interactive for Vampyr and Xbox for Tell Me Why, though it ultimately self-published its most recent game Twin Mirror after an initial publishing deal with Bandai Namco was dropped. Read more A new season of Life is Strange comics begins in AprilJan 22, 2020 - EurogamerLife is Strange's popular graphic novel spin-off will return in April for a new season. Titled as Life is Strange: Partners in Time, it'll continue the comic book adventures of Max, Chloe and Rachel begun last year. The dozen issues released so far offer up a continuation of the original Life is Strange's "Bae" ending, with plenty of timey-wimey storytelling that roped in fan-favourite Rachel Amber, as seen in Life is Strange: Before the Storm. Read more Daniel's Education Explained - Life is Strange 2Nov 5, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsAs we approach the #JourneysEnd, we wanted to take some time to deep dive on one of Life is Strange 2’s most important, but also most misinterpreted systems. We hope that this added insight will help guide you in your decision making as you start Life is Strange 2 either for the first time or on a repeat playthrough. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/4033e01f9cb08b288faeb0ffc6a33b3148ec48e5.jpg As you may know, choices and their consequences in Life is Strange 2 are centered around your brother: Daniel. What we purposefully haven’t outlined properly to date is the depth of this system or how it actually functions as we believe a Life is Strange is best experienced purely rather than trying to game the system underlying it. Quite often we will see players deconstruct the outcome of a Life is Strange 2 episode using the choice and consequence system of previous games: “If you choose these specific three or four options you should get outcome X”. Today we wanted to take some time to explain that interpreting Life is Strange 2 solely through that kind of system can only lead to confusion. Before we get into the new system underlying Life is Strange 2 though, know that each entry in the season does have episode-specific consequence systems that conform to the more traditional choice and consequence approach. Your relationships with secondary characters, for example, are often based on the branching that you’ve come to expect from a Life is Strange game. If you work hard to build a specific relationship, that character’s attitude towards you may change significantly which in turn will open or close off options that determine the fate of these characters. With respect to Daniel however, the system has added layers of complexity. From what we’ve seen so far, Daniel’s education is believed to rely on a “one-track” model similar to the one described above. That is to say that you can, for example, only teach Daniel to either be “Good” or “Bad” and that only certain key decisions will affect his education by nudging him towards becoming either a good or an evil person. The truth, however, is that Daniel grows and learns from your example based on two separate values: Morality and Brotherhood. • Daniel’s Morality state determines how he acts in any given situation. Does he act in a kind and considerate way, or is he entirely selfish, without regard for other people’s feelings or safety? • Daniel’s Brotherhood state determines how he responds to what you, as Sean, teach and ask of him. Does he trust you to make the right choice for the two of you, or will he disregard what you say because you’ve been unable to win his trust? https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/0ec841ec314d6a11864c2dfdce11e29ae376418f.jpg Here’s the thing: the choices you must make in Life is Strange 2 are, like in other Life is Strange games and life in general, imperfect options. There is no true “right” or “wron...Announcing the Life is Strange 2 Boxed EditionOct 14, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsThe moment many of you have been waiting for. Life is Strange 2 is getting a physical release on PC!

It’s also a great way to introduce your friends and family to the long, emotive road to Puerto Lobos. How will your journeys compare? The physical release will be available December 3rd, 2019 in Europe, and February 4th, 2020 in the Americas. It will come in two flavours – the Life is Strange 2 Standard Edition and the Life is Strange 2 Collector’s Edition. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/7284f467418b3f784d3f8d7cebf629338407f086.png The Standard Edition is priced at £34.99/€39.99/$39.99 and will contain: The Complete Season - Episodes 1-5 of Life is Strange 2 Bonus Game - The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit Arcadia Bay Patches - These items let you customize Sean’s in-game backpack!

And to address the Mantroid in the room – the different release dates. It’s nothing personal, we love you all equally. Different countries have different requirements when it comes to rating the content on the discs, and in some cases, this means that a game (or Episode) can’t be rated until it’s complete and submitted, even if it’s not on the disc, which is why the game will be releasing later in the Americas. With Life is Strange 2 we understand that some players may have been waiting for the final episode to release before diving into the game, and that in an ideal world, those holding out for the physical release wouldn’t want to wait longer than those playing digitally. We wanted to give as many people as possible the opportunity to choose between a digital and physical box full season release on December 3rd, but for the reasons touched on above, we aren’t able to provide a simultaneous release in every territory. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/084bdb3834b57c81484e7f119b926816a9455cc5.jpg The only alternative was to push every release date back to February 4th, 2020. As Life is Strange fans, you’ll know that struggling with hard choices is at the core of what we do – this was one we agonised over! In the end, we decided a split release was the best way to give the most players the widest amount of choice.

The brothers experience life on the fringes of society, as they befriend a close-knit community of drifters and runaways, and become embroiled in an illegal trade among the towering redwood forests of California. Sean and Daniel’s resolve is put to the test once again, as new relationships create friction between them and they both learn much about who they are as individuals. Uncertain about their once united purpose, can they stay together, or will their journey together end here?Here's our first proper look at the Life is Strange comic sequelNov 8, 2018 - EurogamerLife is Strange's official graphic novel follow-up launches next week, and we can now take a peek at how it looks. Set after the events of Life is Strange's finale, the comic follows the Bay timeline and picks up Max and Chloe's story one year later. I just finished reading its first issue and it's a great opener - the game's time-travelling weirdness is still causing issues, there are clues to the lingering fates of characters from the Bay ending of the game, and really it's just nice to see Max and Chloe together again - even if just on page.
