When Life is Strange♕: Double Exposure was first revealed as the long-awaited retu🥃rn of Max Caufield, it seemed like it'd be a slam dunk for fans of the series.

Life Is Strange Is Secretly One Of The Most Influential Games Of The ♚Decade
Less mechanical ♑and more emotional, Life is Strange's framework can be found across dozens of games this past ten years.
That wasn't exactly the case at launch, though. Double Exposure was met with mixed reviews from c🅠ritics and faced even harsher criticism from fans of the series, who really hated♉ how the game handl♈ed Max and Chloe's relationship and 🌳the series' overall tone and canon.

Another Life Is Strange Looks Unlikely, As Square Enix Admits Double Exposure Was A "Large Loss"
, Square Enix's president, Takashi Kiryu, just shared the company's 🐼recent financial results in a briefing. While most people are focused on th꧙e claim that Final Fantasy 16 only sold between 500k and one million in the last year, there's worse news for Life is Strange fans.
, the financial reports confirm that Life is Strange: Double Exposure's sales were a "large lo♋ss" for Square Enix, something that was only made up for by the remaste🥃r. Specific numbers for Life is Strange weren't revealed, but it is clear that it didn't sell all too well.
This doesn't come as much of a surprise considering the negative reception to the game from long-term Life is Strange fans, but there was clearly some confidence that the game would do decently. During the credits, a message popped up claiming that "Max Caufield will return", something that now seems a lot ♌less likely.
Square Enix sadly wasn't taking questions during this financial re🤡port, so the details are a little slim regarding Double Exposure's performance right now. All we know is that the company wasn't happy with the results and considers it a "large loss", and even some of the Tomb Raider titles.
