Not bad for an indie game about some teenage girls in a stereotypically “bro-ey” medium.īy all of these accounts, LiS has been a success. According to Dontnod, over 3 million copies have been sold of the original game.
A slew of critical awards accompanied its release and, at the time of this writing, Steam player reviews rate both games as “overwhelmingly positive” from over 100,000 reviews (96% and 94% for LiS and BtS respectively at the time of this writing), among the highest on the platform.
Even before BtS, the original game Life is Strange ( LiS) spawned a lively and supportive community, a not insignificant part of which focused on helping players through “post LiS depression,” a term fans used to describe the mixed feelings of loss, empathy, and sadness from finishing the game. The Life is Strange series up to this point has developed a surprisingly large and dedicated fanbase. On March 6 2018, Life is Strange: Before the Storm ( BtS) released its last episode, aptly titled “Farewell.” Though the original developer of the series, Dontnod, has plans for what is currently only known as Life is Strange Season 2, if early news is to be believed, “ Farewell” marks the end of the series’ time with protagonists Max Caulfield and Chloe Price and the world of Arcadia Bay. After three years, we have turned the page on a young game series called Life is Strange.
