Life is Strange: True Colors boasts some nicely-updated visuals thanks to a new graphics engine, and it seems that extra level of detail also applies to the game’s world. The game’s latest trailer is a tourism video of sorts for Haven Springs, Colorado, which will offer up plenty of colorful locals to talk to, arcade and minigames to play, festivals to attend, and romances to pursue. Heck, you’ll even engage in a little LARPing (Haven Springs seems to have a higher-than-usual concentration of nerds for a small town). Check out the trailer for yourself, below.
Looking promising! I enjoy the upbeat tone of a lot of the Life is Strange: True Colors footage we’ve seen so far. I’m sure the game will visit some dark places, but sometimes Life is Strange can get a little too mopey for its own good. Haven’t been keeping up with Life is Strange: True Colors?
