During the Square Enix Presents showcase, the developers showed a brand new look at Life is Strange: True Colors and how the Power of Empathy works.
Revealed back in March, some fans have been wondering exactly how the powers (which focus on psychic empathy this time around) in the new Life is Strange game actually works. During their E3 showcase, Square dove deep into exactly that, and it looks pretty great.

Today Life is Strange fans across the globe were given a deep dive look at the supernatural power that players will control in the award-winning series’ next major entry, Life is Strange: True Colors. The details were shared in the company’s SQUARE ENIX PRESENTS show, which aired during E3 2021. Developed by Deck Nine Games, the studio behind Life is Strange: Before the Storm, in collaboration with Square Enix External Studios, Life is Strange: True Colors introduces players to Alex Chen, an all-new protagonist who will use her psychic power of empathy to solve a mystery that will make her question everyone and everything she’s come to know in the quaint small town of Haven Springs.
The presentation gave more insight into the visuals, gameplay, and narrative impact of Alex’s psychic power of Empathy, showing how she and the player will make choices and interact with the citizens of Haven Springs, both through use of the power during exploration, and in memorable story-driven moments that present the player with complex decisions only they – using Alex’s power – can resolve.
The psychic power of Empathy affects every interaction and relationship Alex has in the game and is fully under the players control. Use it to reveal the secrets of Haven Springs, the hidden facets of Alex’s past, and the future of her journey to find a place to call home.
Life is Strange: True Colors launches (all together!) on PlayStation 4|5, Xbox consoles, PCs, and Google Stadia on September 10, 2021.
