It's a new adventure.

Today, developer Dontnod Entertainment and publisher Square Enix revealed a gameplay trailer and new details about Life Is Strange 2. The game follows a new cast of characters on an incredible journey across the country. The first episode is coming to Xbox One and other platforms on September 27, 2018.

According to Square Enix, in Life Is Strange 2, players will discover a story of two brothers, sixteen-year old Sean and nine-year old Daniel Diaz, who have to flee their Seattle home after a tragic access that changes their lives forever. On the run from the police, Sean makes the difficult decision to take his brother and go to Mexico. Life on the road is dangerous for the two boys and they'll be forced to make some hard-hitting decisions along the way.

Life Is Strange 2's Creative Director Raoul Barbet said, "The release of Captain Spirit was a great moment for the team and we can't wait to introduce the players to the new story and characters of Life Is Strange 2. We have worked hard with the original team to keep what I personally loved to craft in the first game: the mood, the cinematographic work and of course, the music."

Michel Koch, Life Is Strange 2's other Creative Director added, "After the exciting adventures of Max and Chloe, we are extremely happy that you will all soon meet Sean and Daniel Diaz, our new protagonists, and follow them on their journey. We love diving back into the Life Os Strange universe along with our lead writer... to create our new story and characters."

  • Finally played the first one. Very emotional game.
  • New characters....😒
  • What does it mean to be in the same universe 🌌 if there is no mention of it.
  • It's in the same universe. But I don't know how related the stories will be.
  • That means they will probably be small hints of the past occurrences. Not your choices probably, more like just the major plot things from past games.
  • If they flee from Seattle to Mexico, I think they may pass by Arcadia Bay.
  • so everytime Max rewinds, the guy witnesses the death of the cop. and it just keeps repeating repeating so they run away to find the cause of this to kill her via his power to create giant tornadoes. /spoiler.
  • Best story line ever
  • We want Max Caulfield
