During a livestream today, Square Enix and Deck Nine Games revealed the final entry in the “Max and Chloe Saga” of Life is Strange, titled Life is Strange: Reunion.
For the first time in the series’ history, players will be able to assume the roles of both Max Caufield and Chloe Price in the same game, going between both heroines’ perspectives throughout the story. Max is once again able to use her Rewind powers, while Chloe will be able to take advantage of her “Backtalk ability, quick wits, and take-no-prisoners attitude” to do things Max can’t.
The title is set to release on March 26, 2026 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store on Windows. The standard edition will cost $39.99, and those who preorder the game will receive the Max and Chloe Classic Outfits DLC.

What is Life is Strange: Reunion about?
“In Life is Strange: Reunion, players will once again visit Caledon University, where Max Caulfield works as a photography teacher,” reads the game’s synopsis. “Returning from a weekend away, Max finds her beloved Caledon ablaze, as a raging inferno destroys the hallowed grounds and ends the lives of Max’s friends, students and faculty alike. Max only escapes the devastation due to her Rewind power – returning from the original Life is Strange – a supernatural ability that lets her reverse time.
“Jumping back in time through a selfie, Max now has just three days to work out how the fire began. Can she make the most of her second chance to prevent this fiery disaster? That’s when Chloe Price arrives at Caledon, much to Max’s surprise: a shocking repercussion of Max’s merging of the timelines at the end of Life is Strange: Reunion. Haunted by nightmares of a past she never lived, and with her grip on reality unravelling, Chloe needs Max’s help.”
