Life is Strange Episode 1 – Now FREE

Fancied playing Life is Strange, but thought you should probably use the money for something else like milk or bread? Well to open up the game to “a host of new players”, Life is Strange Episode 1 is now completely free across all platforms (PS3, PS4, PC (including Mac and Linux), Xbox 360 and Xbox One).

An announcement on the Steam Community from Toby Palm the Community Manager for Squre Enix Europe and Life is Strange, said:
