Life is Strange 2: Episode 2 release date set for January 24th, 2019

Square Enix has announced the release date for ‘Rules’ the second episode of Life is Strange 2. The five-episode season from Square Enix External Studios and DONTNOD Entertainment will release on January 24th, 2019. It will be available on Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

Ahead of the release Gonzalo Martin, the voice of Sean Diaz in the game, has starred in a live-action visualisation of a pivotal moment on the brothers’ journey in Life is Strange 2.

See the live-action trailer and get a first glimpse of Life is Strange 2 Episode 2 below:

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 becomes increasingly unwell. 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?
