According to the latest financial report from Square Enix, the game Life is Strange: Double Exposure has been a financial disappointment for the company. This revelation came directly from the president of Square Enix during a recent briefing where he discussed the company's performance. The financial losses incurred from Double Exposure were somewhat mitigated by cost-cutting measures in development and the successful launch of the Dragon Quest 3 remake. However, the specific sales numbers for this new chapter in the Life is Strange series were not disclosed, underscoring its poor market reception.
The underwhelming performance of Double Exposure did not come as a shock to many, particularly given the lukewarm response from the franchise's long-time fans following the game's announcement. Although there were initial hopes that the game would resonate well with the fanbase, the final product fell short of expectations. The game's end credits included a teaser that "Max Caulfield will return," yet the likelihood of continuing her story now appears uncertain.
During the financial report presentation, Square Enix chose not to elaborate further on the matter. The only information provided was that Double Exposure was described as a "significant loss," a designation previously applied to games like Guardians of the Galaxy and certain entries in the Tomb Raider series, which also faced commercial challenges. This classification casts a shadow over the future of the Life is Strange franchise.
