Dontnod officially unveiled Life is Strange 2 at Gamescom, finally confirming that it will be an entirely new story, following brothers Daniel and Sean Diaz on a mysterious quest which apparently sees them fleeing to Puerto Lobos, Mexico after a tragic event.

Specific details are still thin on the ground, but the devs have promised that your actions will have considerable consequences, and a new power will be introduced in stark contrast to Max's time-rewinding from the first season.

It'll be interesting to see how the free prologue episode The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit ties into the final game, which launches its first episode on September 27 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.
