It’s been too long since we paid a visit to Arcadia Bay. Which makes the release of Life is Strange Remastered Collection even more fortuitous.

Released on the 1^st of February 2022, the adventures of Max and Chloe have received a visual face lift worthy of their games’ critical acclaim. The enhanced graphics look stunning, not to mention the animation receiving a boost thanks to modern mocap technology. We’ve picked out our five favourite gaming laptops for you to immerse yourself in this breathtaking adventure. 

What is Life is Strange About?

In Life is Strange, you play as photography student Max who has just returned to her hometown of Arcadia Bay. After discovering she can rewind time when saving childhood friend Chloe from being shot, the two set out to learn what became of Chloe’s missing friend Amber. Originally an episodic release, this adventure game uses its rewind ability to touch every aspect of your adventure. From collecting items to completing puzzles to branching dialogue, your power to manipulate time will be key as you explore the town and its mysteries. But actions are never without consequences, and these unfold the deeper you go into the story. 

You also get to play Before the Storm, a prequel that follows Chloe three years before the events of the main game. The story deeper explores her past and relationship with Amber before her disappearance. Even without Max’s powers, you’ll still get to experience an emotionally tumultuous story through meaningful dialogue choices.
