Square Enix has announced their latest project coming to Gamescom 2014 and it isn’t related to “Final Fantasy.”
“Life is Strange” is a new episodic adventure following the story of Max Caulfield as she discovers she wields an unusual power. Square Enix explained released a statement regarding the title on their official blog:
“Max Caulfield has been absent from Arcadia Bay, Oregon for five years now,” Square Enix wrote. “Upon returning home she discovers that Rachel Amber, a fellow senior at school, has disappeared under mysterious and rather uncomfortable circumstances. While trying to uncover the truth Max reunites with an old friend, Chloe, and makes a startling discovery: Max has the power to rewind time.”
“Life is Strange” will be released to the PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC. The title will also premiere during Gamescom 2014. Square Enix stated on their blog developers “love” the story and have partnered with a fellow gaming studio to bring “amazing” gameplay to fans.
“I know I've mentioned this before, but Life is Strange is something entirely different - we've teamed up with DONTNOD Entertainment (the guys and girls behind 'Remember Me') and they've delivered some amazing stuff,” Square Enix wrote in their blog.
“Each and every texture in Life is Strange is a hand drawn work of art and every action enacts a butterfly effect - but with the power to rewind time, what would you change? And would it turn out to be a change for the better or worse?”
