Life is Strange: Double Exposure already teases a direct sequel

Life is Strange: Double Exposure is retired today. While thing has been officially announced by developer Deck Nine aliases patient Square Enix, respective aspects of Double Exposure’s conclusion propose that location is an volition to merchandise a nonstop sequel.

 Ending spoilers travel for Life is Strange: Double Exposure.

Most obviously, nan very extremity of Double Exposure’s credits proclaims: “Max Caulfield will return.” It’s nan benignant of proclamation that became a cliché acknowledgment to Marvel Cinematic Universe movies promising that nan heroes they characteristic would travel backmost to theaters successful nan future. To spot that utilized successful a very different benignant of superpower-related media for illustration Life is Strange is unexpected, but apt.

This connection appears astatine nan extremity of Life is Strange: Double Exposure, confirming that Max Caulfield will return successful nan future. Square Enix

At nan very least, it’s a confirmation that Max Caulfield is excessively iconic a characteristic for Square Enix to time off behind. It was a spot of a astonishment that Double Exposure starred her erstwhile it was announced, but now we should expect her to beryllium a cardinal subordinate successful nan bid going forward. Looking astatine really Double Exposure’s communicative wraps up, there’s besides immoderate clear denotation of wherever it will spell next.

The biggest twist successful Double Exposure is that Max’s friend, Safi, besides has superpowers. She tin toggle shape into different people, and her actions yet origin nan large wind astatine Double Exposure’s climax. Max refuses to termination Safi and creates a merged timeline for Safi to survive. After that, Safi tells Max that she will hunt for different group pinch powers now that she knows she isn’t nan only 1 pinch them.

Max tin take to work together to support her aliases not, and Double Exposure ends pinch her giving a pep talk to her friends astir really they’ll beryllium prepared for immoderate comes next. A post-credit segment sees Safi enlistee Diamond, a student Max interacts pinch a batch passim nan escapade and who has powers, aft nan events of this game. It’s chartless precisely wherever nan communicative will spell from here, arsenic nary charismatic announcements person been made and location is nary insider accusation connected it. I’ll personally estimate that this is mounting up a sequel wherever superpowered characters from different Life is Strange games could perchance appear.

That continuation is apt a ways from release, though, truthful for now, we tin conscionable bask Double Exposure for what it is and hold for Square Enix to make an charismatic announcement. If you want to acquisition this ending, Life is Strange: Double Exposure is now disposable for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
