By being able to bring the characters to life using full-body motion capture technology, True Colors shows off what the next-generation of the series can deliver. For a series that has so much heart and characters that you can easily connect with, making empathy a power is so well suited to the world of Life is Strange, and to Alex as a character.įor me, the emotive, character-driven stories are what makes Life is Strange as a series so special, and the experience of navigating through Alex's journey is made all the more impactful and effective thanks to the fantastic performances of the cast.

Thanks to the way it effectively allows you to connect and relate to the characters of Haven Springs, and with Alex herself, empathy opens up a window into the feelings of others in interesting and even sometimes abstract ways and puts you in direct control of Alex's journey.

Supernatural powers have always been folded into the stories of the Life is Strange series, but as powers go, empathy is certainly one of the most engaging. Platform(s): PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch (at a later date)
