By keeping heartfelt, emotional music at the core of the story, the next entry in the series could be its most emotionally resonant yet. Writing music isn't always a straightforward process, and it could be interesting to see what the Life is Strange series can do in terms of portraying that process through gameplay.

Life is Strange: True Colors is packed full of similar moments, as Alex Chen's empath powers pair well with the empathetic qualities of music. With the release of each new Life is Strange, fans explore every corner of the game in search of hidden moments with licensed songs that perfectly capture how the protagonist is feeling. ![]()
