The second episode of Life Is Strange 2 is entitled ‘Rules’ and is available digitally worldwide this Thursday, January 24th, 2019, for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC/Steam.
Hopes are high that Episode 2 follows in the footsteps of it’s predecessor as Gamespace enjoyed Episode 1, check out our review here!
Episode 2 picks up a few months after the events of the first episode, as Sean and Daniel are on the run from the police following the tragic incident in Seattle and the manifestation of a strange supernatural power. Things are getting tougher as the seasons have changed and the winter cold is setting in.
The power takes a central position in the story as Daniel is slowly coming to terms with his abilities. The brothers have to practice Daniel’s control over his powers so he can be less of a danger to himself and others, but at the same time, they also have to hide his abilities from a world that won’t understand.
They have come to an agreement on a set of rules for how Daniel uses his abilities in order to keep them hidden: Never in public. Never talk about it. Run from danger. However, can a 9-year old really follow the rules?
As a side note, the development team suggests the following for full enjoyment of the game:
The much loved Captain Spirit returns in Episode 2 of Life Is Strange 2. It’s recommended that players complete The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit™, as Episode 2 takes into account Captain Spirit save games. Actions taken in Captain Spirit will have repercussions in Episode 2. The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is available 100% free on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC/Steam.
