5 Biggest Announcements From Gamescom 2018
Life is Strange 2
While it technically isn’t a new game announcement, the full story reveal trailer for Life is Strange 2 has us hugely excited. For the first time, it confirmed that Sean and Daniel Diaz, first revealed in The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, are the main protagonists for Dontnod Entertainment’s latest narrative-driven adventure, and we got to see a great tone piece that tees up the game’s plot.
The first entry in the episodic series is to release on Sept. 27 and will feature a completely new story set within the same universe as the critically acclaimed first game. It’s a brave move from Dontnod to completely abandon an already established plot and characters, and we’re keen to see how the developers manage to tie in the sorts of realistic themes like romance and drama to a plot-line that’s been described as similar to the film The Road. Still, we can’t wait to see how Sean and Daniel’s journey to Mexico unfolds, and how the two manage to cope with handling the superpowers they’ve inherited.
