‘Life Is Strange’ Gets A Physical Limited Edition This January!
Briefly: Based on what I’ve heard about the sales performance of this year’s incredible adventure, Life Is Strange, this announcement (and the heavy rumours that the episodic franchise will be receiving a second season) is actually quite surprising to me.
It’s also beyond exciting.
See, if you’re a Geekscape (or Geekscape Games) regular, you know full well just how much I loved the first (and so far only confirmed) season of DONTNOD’s Life is Strange.
2015 has been a year filled with incredible game releases (with a few more still on the way). yet every time I think about the best, most resonating titled that I’ve played so far this year, my mind always wanders back to Max and Chloe’s incredible time-jumping adventure.
Now, I can celebrate my love for DONTNOD’s unique and epic tale by picking up a limited edition physical version of the game this coming January. The release was revealed this morning on the official Square-Enix blog, and the Xbox One, PS4, or PC collection is set to hit Europe on January 22nd (and it better be coming to North America too).
In the collection, you’ll find (of course) all five episodes of the game on disc, a 32 page artbook (including unreleased concept art), the full Life is Strange soundtrack, plus the original score by Jonathan Morali, and director’s commentary!
Life is Strange producer Luc Baghadoust noted that “The response to Life is Strange really has blown us away! To be able to share that experience with our fans in a traditional boxed format is something we’re really excited about and the decision to include the extra items for the Limited Edition is a direct response to fan requests.”
The fact that it comes with the game’s soundtrack is a fantastic bonus, since, as memorable as the game is on its own, the soundtrack really brings it to another level. Here’s the tracklisting:
