As of today, the first episode of Dontnod’s episodic series Life is Strange is free on PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PC, Mac and soon-to-be Linux. Life is Strange is the beautiful coming-of-age story about two young women, Max and Chloe, and their journey to find Chloe’s missing friend after Max gains the ability to rewind time.
This captivating game addresses themes of mental illness, suicide, death and moving on with incredible nuance, and was one of our favorite games of 2015. Life is Strange won multiple awards, including the BAFTA for Best Story, Games for Change’s Game of the Year, the Golden Joystick for Best Performance, the Game Awards’ Game for Change, and was the only videogame to win a Peabody Award last year.
