Vi fik en samtale med Life is Strange: Before the Storm-tekstforfatter, Zak Garris, ved dette års E3 og talte om byen Arcadia Bay, som både er hjem for det første spil i serien og denne fortsættelse (der finder sted tre år før begivenhederne i det første spil).
"I think it'll feel in some ways familiar, for sure. Fans from the first season will be going to places that they know and that they love. But at the same time we're looking at this world through Chloe's eyes, which are different eyes than Max in a lot of ways. And we think that'll paint a different picture of the town, and what it means for the player in Chloe's shoes to be walking around there."
Spillerne kender allerede til mange af karakterne der optræder, hvilket er et faktum, som udviklerne har tænkt meget over under udviklingen.
"There are definitely elements that are core to Season One, Jefferson might be one of them, those characters play very specific roles, and they have very elaborate evolution through the course of the story," forklarer Garriss. "It's important for us to return to characters that are familiar, but at the same time to be introducing new characters who will have similar depth, and we hope similar surprises for the player."
Den første (ud af tre) episode af Life is Strange: Before the Storm udkommer til PC, PS4 og Xbox One d. 31 august.
