According to the latest financial report from Square Enix, the game Life is Strange: Double Exposure has unfortunately been classified as a financial disappointment for the company. This was disclosed by Square Enix's president during a recent financial briefing where he discussed the company's overall performance. While the losses incurred from Double Exposure were somewhat mitigated by cost-saving measures and the successful launch of the Dragon Quest 3 remake, the specific sales numbers for this latest addition to the Life is Strange series have not been revealed, underscoring its lackluster commercial success.

The underwhelming reception was not unexpected, given the lukewarm response from the franchise's dedicated fanbase when the game was first announced. Despite high hopes that Double Exposure would resonate with fans, the final product fell short of expectations. The game's end credits teased a future with the message "Max Caulfield will return," but given the current circumstances, the likelihood of continuing her story appears increasingly doubtful.

During the financial report presentation, Square Enix chose not to elaborate further on the situation. It is only known that the company has described the game's performance as a "significant loss," a label also previously applied to titles like Guardians of the Galaxy and certain entries in the Tomb Raider series, which similarly underperformed. This development casts a shadow over the future of the Life is Strange franchise, leaving fans and industry watchers alike to question what lies ahead.
