"Even if you only play Life Is Strange: Arcadia Bay Collection in handheld mode and you&s;ve never played either game elsewhere, this offering isn&s;t great. At $40 for a slightly worse version of two older titles, I can&s;t recommend the …"

"Life is Strange Remastered Collection is only good because Life is Strange is so good. The upgrades are nice, but they aren’t evenly applied and sometimes make the game look worse. It also has an inexcusable number of bugs. Life …"

"Deck Nine have done a wonderful job in bringing Arcadia Bay back to life in this re-telling of a beloved story. Max, Chloe and Rachel&s;s bonds feel stronger than ever with the brand new animations, lip-synching and model overhauls. Unfortunately, …"
Read original review"Though it&s;s a good entry point for series newcomers, Life is Strange Remastered Collection seems entirely unnecessary for anyone else."
Read original review"Life is Strange Arcadia Bay Collection features two great games, but the visuals leave a little to be desired. The story of Max and Chloe still hits you hard, but overall, it&s;s let down by various texture and animation issues."
Read original review"Life is Strange and Before the Storm are and ultimate bundle of joy and should be celebrated. It&s;s not the perfect way to do it for the moment, but I&s;m sure there&s;s going to be future fixes that will amend …"
