Life is Strange 2's first episode now permanently free

Life is Strange 2

After a tragic incident, brothers Sean and Daniel Diaz run away from home. Fearing the police, and dealing with Daniel's new telekinetic power, the boys head to Mexico. Each stop on their journey brings new friends and new challenges.

The first episode of Life is Strange 2 has been made free forever on PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
