The intensity runs high in Life is Strange’s Episode 5 launch trailer

The final episode of DontNod and Square Enix' Life is Strange releases tonight across the globe and the launch trailer has just been cut loose. After the devastating ending to episode 4, we get a glimpse of what may have made the storm heading for Arcadia Bay come to fruition in the first place.

In the trailer, you hear Max state that she believes the storm started as a result of her ability to turn back time. This is opposite of what we've been led to believe so far in the first four episodes with Max's ability hinted at being a gift to stop the storm.  We're not sure if this is going to come to light during the game or just hyperbole by Max in the trailer, but the ending to Life is Strange is shaping up to be an emotional, gut wrenching experience.

Afte the first four episodes, we put together our list of the most shocking moments so far in the game. There are spoilers within so beware if you've yet to play the game. Square Enix is releasing the times Episode 5 Polarized will be available for download later today and we'll keep you updated as we hear them. Let us know what you think of the game so far below as Life is Strange has touched on some serious topics that impact many people outside of just gaming.
