When Square Enix boldly proclaimed it would charge fans $30 for the privilege of playing Life is Strange: Double Exposure's first two episodes a full two weeks early, we knew the pioneering publisher was plumbing new depths of monetization. We did not, however, consider data miners, who it took less than 48 hours to rip near-complete, unencrypted audio files from the rest of the game. As you can imagine, significant spoilers abound well before the game's official 29th October release on PS5.
PSLS inadvertently came across a Reddit thread summarising large parts of the plot, which we won't link to here. The files apparently emerged on 4chan before being deleted, but the damage seems done. We viewed it so you don't have to, and it all certainly seems legit, full of specific details regarding the antagonist, story, and endings. Just yesterday, Eurogamer noted the worrying potential for spoilers in the story-heavy first two episodes alone; now, it seems the cat is entirely out of the bag.
