Today, during the Xbox Games Showcase, publisher Square Enix has officially revealed and announced the next entry into the Life is Strange franchise.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure is set to launch on October 29, 2024, for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
Double Exposure follows Max Caulfield, now a photographer-in-residence at the prestigious Caledon University. She discovers her closest new friend Safi dead in the snow, murdered.

Max realizes the killer will soon strike again – in both versions of reality. Only Max can Shift between the two parallel timelines to solve and prevent the same murder.
