"The official announcement is set to go live at 1 p.m. Eastern, but Xbox Wire posted its announcement blog a bit early. Reunion will star both Max Caulfield and Chloe as co-protagonists, with both having different gameplay mechanics. Max is able to rewind time as she did in the first Life Is Strange, while Chloe will use her argumentative "Backtalk" mechanic from the prequel Before the Storm."
"The big question is how Chloe is able to return despite her possibly dying at the end of the original Life Is Strange, a choice that Double Exposure made a point to import. Based on this line in the blog post, it seems like it may be as a result of the timeline jumping Max did in Double Exposure, though I expect the minutiae of this to be affected by which choice you made way back in 2015."
Life Is Strange: Reunion launches March 26 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. Max Caulfield and Chloe Price serve as co-protagonists with distinct gameplay: Max can rewind time while Chloe uses her Backtalk mechanic. Chloe's return may be tied to Max's Double Exposure ability to shift between parallel timelines, an ability later lost when timelines merged and Rewind was recovered. Reunion appears to preserve prior major choices—Chloe's survival and the nature of her relationship with Max—and will make those past choices influence the future players attempt to build. Additional details are likely from developer Deck Nine.
