Hey, folks. Adnan here. Just uploading the live-stream edition of Player 1 vs The World's StrangeCast episode! We -- Adam and I -- did this episode immediately after Life Is Strange: Double Exposure was announced on Sunday.

Life Is Strange: Double Exposure is the brand-new title in the franchise that debuted at the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase. Life Is Strange: True Colors developer Deck Nine is again at the helm of the new Life Is Strange, which sees the return of Hannah Telle as Max Caulfield!

We wanted to thank everyone who took part in the live stream with us. It was incredible to interact with our audience in real time and we even had 57 people watching us at one point, which is wild for a small channel like this.

The original live stream will stay on YouTube for anyone to watch, and a massive thank you to everyone who has watched it so far. It has crossed 1,000 views, which, again, is wild to see for such a small channel.

Just an FYI: the video quality for this episode is a LOT better than the stream, but because we did a live stream, the audio quality is not the same as it normally is for our pre-recorded episodes. With all that said, I hope you enjoy watching this video (again or for the first time!). We appreciate you all! 🫶

Player 1 vs The World's StrangeCast is BACK, folks. It's our pre-Summer Game Fest and Xbox Games Showcase episode, so it's time for Adnan and Adam to make their predictions for Don't Nod Entertainment, Deck Nine, Square Enix and Life Is Strange.

BUT... before our predictions, the StrangeCast hosts have a lot of different topics to cover for this episode. Adnan and Adam talk about Don't Nod Montreal studio executive producer Luc Baghadoust revealing his favourite episodes from Life Is Strange and Life Is Strange 2.

Speaking of Don't Nod Montreal, Life Is Strange 1 & 2 co-director Michel Koch has shared the three inspirations behind the upcoming Lost Records: Bloom & Rage.

Don't Nod has confirmed that Tell Me Why is FREE on PC and Xbox consoles for Pride Month, while Deck Nine has seen The Expanse: A Telltale Series receive a nomination at the Gayming Awards.

Oh, and Don't Nod's Twin Mirror is on sale for Steam, so that's our final piece of news before our main topic!

We are back! Player 1 vs The World's StrangeCast returns for the final episode of May 2024. We're here to bring our lovely listeners all of the latest discussions and news around Don't Nod Entertainment, Deck Nine, Square Enix and, of course, Life Is Strange!

For this episode of StrangeCast, Adnan and Adam revisit Life Is Strange 2 Episode 3: Wastelands to mark its five-year anniversary this month. The StrangeCast hosts also share their feelings on podcasting, interviewing people tied to the Life Is Strange series and more!

Our main topic is none other than a big focus on Life Is Strange publisher Square Enix after it laid off staff, its stock price took a tumble and it has now changed its overall business plan. But where does Life Is Strange fit into these plans? Has Square Enix lost all control of the direction of Life Is Strange? Let's talk... ☕️
