Following the highly-anticipated announcement ofLife is Strange: True Colors, singer-songwriter and Twitch streamer mxmtoon, also known by her first name Maia, will be joining the cast as Alex Chen’s in-game singing voice.
A couple weeks back, rumors surrounding the third installment in the mainLife is Strangeseries began circulating. Now, with the Square Enix Presents showcase earlier today, it looks like the rumors were dead-on. The game will prominently feature Alex, an Asian-American woman returning to her hometown in the midwestern town of Haven Springs. The story will largely encompass Alex as she struggles with the loss of her brother Gabe, but along with her psychic power referred to as empathy, Alex is also an experienced musician, detailed in thetrailers and in-depth look ofLife is Strange:True Colors.
