The first gameplay for the Life Is Strange: Remastered Collection has dropped to show how Life Is Strange has evolved
We have been waiting for a bit and had some other bits from the IP coming out, but February 1st is almost here and we will soon be able to add the Life Is Strange: Remastered Collection into the list of games we own. Well, we will own them again but it could be the first time that you might be able to experience this fun story from Deck Nine Games. That is if you missed out on it all before or just want to play most of the Life Is Strange story in those glorious higher-resolution visuals on the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Something that we can give you a little bit of a taste of if you want to see how the story all kicks off once more. It is almost as if we are going back in time…
Get ready to not be overly shocked, given how the visuals for Life Is Strange and the Before The Storm were before, there is not much of an upgrade to it all. That is not a bad thing, but the style did not lend itself to a photorealistic style, so that is not a huge selling point. The bigger one, though, is that we get the full set of games with all of their updates in one solid spot so we can binge through. This does feel like it would have made a bit more sense if it were out before Life Is Strange: True Colors, but it is what it is. Now you can have a look at some of the opening scenes from the first game just below with all of those upgrades flowing. It still holds up but the true selling point is getting it all in one go for me.
