Life is Strange: Developer can no longer imagine episode model

Another episodic game? If the Life is Strange developer has his way, this approach will be a thing of the past.

The Life is Strange series will no longer return to the episodic format it used to be. Deck Nine announced this. In conversation with the Portal Rock, Paper, Shotgun

Senior Narrative Designer Philip Lawrence admitted that releasing the final installment, True Colors, in its entirety was the right decision. We want to stay that way in the future.

“I can’t imagine going back to the episodic model. The reactions have been very positive.” While True Colors was still split into five episodic chapters, it was released as a complete package for the first time in the series. At least you want to stick to this type of subdivision, because you not only assume that the players like it, but that it is now also part of the Life is Strange DNA.

Players who want to revisit to relive important moments with the community would still be able to, but players frustrated by real episodes would no longer be scared away. Apart from that, the future of the series is currently unknown. After all, recently a Roman announced for next year, which tells the story behind True Colors.

Finally! The award-winning adventure series Life is Strange comes to the Nintendo Switch for the first time.
