The Life is Strange series is likely facing closure

Square Enix's recent financial report revealed that Life is Strange: Double Exposure significantly underperformed, resulting in a financial loss for the company. The president of Square Enix confirmed this during a briefing outlining the company's results. While cost-cutting measures and the successful launch of the Dragon Quest 3 remake partially offset these losses, the exact sales figures for Double Exposure remain undisclosed, further emphasizing its poor commercial performance.

This outcome wasn't entirely unexpected, given the lukewarm reception from fans following the game's announcement. Initial optimism that the game would satisfy franchise loyalists ultimately proved unfounded. Although the game's credits teased a return for Max Caulfield, the future of the Life is Strange storyline now appears uncertain.

Square Enix offered no further comment during the financial report presentation. The company described the game's performance as a "significant loss"—a term previously applied to underperforming titles such as Guardians of the Galaxy and certain Tomb Raider installments. This raises considerable concerns about the future of the Life is Strange franchise.
