Square Enix and Dontnod Entertainment announced today that the second episode to the critically acclaimed Life is Strange 2 will be released for Xbox One, PS4, and PC on January 24, 2019.
The second of the five part episode will continue the story of Sean and Daniel.
Here’s an overview of the second episode via Square Enix:
Sean and Daniel’s story continues in Episode 2. On the run from the police following a tragic incident in Seattle and the manifestation of a strange supernatural power, Sean and Daniel Diaz continue their journey into the winter months. As the two brothers struggle against the cold, Daniel gets increasingly ill. Sean decides that they must take the risk and make their way to their distant grandparent’s house to recover and seek shelter.
There, they encounter next-door neighbour Chris Eriksen, a young boy who believes he has powers eerily similar to Daniel’s, and they come face to face with his superhero alter ego, Captain Spirit.
As Daniel and Chris are becoming fast friends, it’s up to Sean to make sure Daniel follows a set of rules they agreed on for his power: Never in public. Never talk about it. Run from danger.
Can Daniel successfully hide the truth from the people around them, will the temptation to explore the immense power within him be too much, or will he break the rules in a time of need?
Life is Strange 2 is available now for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. Those who have not purchased the first episode can still do so for a low price of $24.99 for the whole season or purchase them separately.
In addition to the release date, Square Enix also released a new live-action trailer starring Gonzalo Martin, the voice of Life is Strange 2’s Sean Diaz.
