Square Enix has unveiled the Life is Strange Collection for PlayStation 5, set to launch on October 2, 2025. This comprehensive bundle packages all five critically acclaimed titles from the narrative-driven franchise alongside their complete DLC content, offering players the ultimate experience of this emotionally charged series.

The journey began in 2015 with the original Life is Strange, introducing players to Max Caulfield - a photography student who discovers her extraordinary ability to rewind time. This groundbreaking mechanic allowed players to explore the profound consequences of their choices, setting a new standard for interactive storytelling in games.

The collection includes:

  • Life is Strange: Before the Storm Remastered (2017 prequel)
  • Life is Strange Remastered (enhanced original)
  • Life is Strange 2 (2018 sequel)
  • Life is Strange: True Colors (2021 installment)
  • Life is Strange: Double Exposure (2024 latest release)
  • All DLC expansions and pre-order bonuses

Priced at $59.99, this anthology represents exceptional value for both newcomers and series veterans. The inclusion of Double Exposure is particularly noteworthy - the 2024 Game Awards nominee that reintroduces Max Caulfield with a new reality-shifting power as she investigates a murder across parallel dimensions.

Beyond its innovative gameplay, the series has been celebrated for its thoughtful LGBTQ+ representation, presenting queer relationships with authenticity and depth. The franchise's emotional storytelling continues to resonate with players worldwide, making this collection a significant release for narrative game enthusiasts.

The Life is Strange series has consistently pushed boundaries in player choice mechanics, with its signature time-rewinding feature creating unparalleled opportunities for narrative experimentation. This collection marks the perfect opportunity for PS5 owners to experience the complete saga in one package.
