A special broadcast revealing the next Life is Strange game is set to air next week. While we don’t know much more than that, the video does reveal that this new entry will launch in 2026.
The reveal stream will air on Tuesday, January 20, beginning at 12:30 pm ET. The stream’s cryptic video description reads “Separate the real from the rumor… Join us for the exclusive reveal of the next Life is Strange game,” so there’s little indication of what this next entry entails.

Will the next game be a follow-up to 2024’s Life is Strange: Double Exposure or something different entirely? It will also be interesting to see if the original Life is Strange developer Don’t Nod will return to the franchise or if Deck Nine, which developed Double Exposure along with Life is Strange: True Colors and Life is Strange: Before the Storm, will continue to shepherd the franchise. The latter seems likely, as we know Don’t Nod is busy working on Aphelion, which is also slated to launch this year.
What do you think (or hope) this new Life is Strange will be? Let us know in the comments.Â
