In a blog post on Square Enix’s website, a producer announced that Dontnod’s Life is Strange will release its fifth episode on October 20th, 2015. This is the farthest that the series has seen confirmation on the next episode’s release date, but the studio has promised that they’re ensuring they put the best out there for the players.
“Many things can change in the lead up to release but the team are working really hard to try and hit this date,” producer Luc Baghadoust said in the blog. “We know the wait may be a bit longer than some of you were hoping for but we want to ensure Episode 5 is the best it can be.”
Life is Strange has already sold over one million copies.
Square Enix and Dontnod is encouraging fans to continue the conversation on social media by using the #LISFinale hashtag.
