The Final Episode Of ‘Life Is Strange’ Gets A (Probable) Release Date!

Briefly: If you’re a Geekscape (or Geekscape Games) regular, you know full well just how much I’ve loved the first four episodes 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 titled I’ve played so far this year, my mind always wanders back to Max and Chloe’s incredible time-jumping adventure.

Four episodes of the game’s first season have been released, each somehow better and more emotional than the last, and DONTNOD today (on Max’s birthday, no less) have finally revealed just when we’ll be able to get our hands on the game’s fifth and final episode.

“We don’t normally announce a date until we know the game is 100% ready but in the spirit of Max’s birthday (today) we wanted to let you know early that we are aiming to release Episode 5 ‘Polarized’ October 20.”

I’m both excited and terrified for the upcoming release, as those who are up to date with the game know the horrifying situation that Max found herself in at the close of episode four. I honestly have no idea what will happen at any moment of ‘Polarized’, but I sure hope that Max makes it out okay.

DONTNOD has stated that if the game gets a second season, it’ll likely feature an all new cast and plot. I’m a huge fan of fresh experiences, but it’s going to be hard as hell to say goodbye to Max and Arcadia Bay.

Are you up to date with Life is Strange? What have you thought of the game so far? What do you think is in store for us with episode five!?
