Life is Unusual: Double Publicity is placing gamers again within the footwear of Max Caulfield, the long-lasting protagonist of the unique Life is Unusual. And as if that’s not thrilling sufficient, this time she’ll be armed with an all-new energy: the power to enter alternate timelines by which sure characters are nonetheless alive. 

From the trailers and teasers that Deck 9 has given us, we all know that Max will use her new energy to resolve the mysterious homicide of her buddy Safi. Nonetheless, the power to enter alternate timelines opens up seemingly infinite potentialities for different Life is Unusual characters to return. It additionally leads us to ask the all-important question- will Chloe be in Double Publicity? We’re fairly certain Deck 9 is taking part in their playing cards near the chest and has some thrilling surprises in retailer for us.

10. Joyce Worth

Even in the event you selected the Bae over Bay ending to the primary Life is Unusual, the powers that Max has in Double Publicity may theoretically permit for key characters from her previous to make a return. Although Joyce is Chloe’s mother and never Max’s, she continues to be an vital determine in Max’s childhood. A number of texts, emails, or postcards from Joyce might be a great way to hyperlink the brand new recreation with the traditional one. 

9. Chris Eriksen

Chris is the imaginative predominant character of The Superior Adventures of Captain Spirit who additionally performs a key position in Life is Unusual 2. We don’t have any affirmation on precisely when Double Publicity takes place, however he may now be about the suitable age to be a university scholar at Caledon College, the place Max is a photographer-in-residence.

8. Skip Matthews

Skip Matthews is a safety guard at Blackwell Academy in Earlier than the Storm who makes music on the aspect. Hopefully, his band PissHead made it huge, and Max will hear their tunes on the radio. It could actually convey again a few of that traditional Life Is Unusual spirit and could be a pleasant lighthearted contact.

7. Max’s Dad and mom

We don’t know a lot about Max’s household; they solely seem within the unique Life is Unusual by way of textual content messages. However Double Publicity has the chance to open up the thriller of their characters a bit extra, as it would give Max an much more complicated backstory. Whatever the decisions you made and the ending you chose, it appears most affordable for them to nonetheless keep in touch with Max and need the very best for her.

6. Alex Chen

The principle character of Life is Unusual: True Colours is a deeply empathetic, caring one that has a character that might mix nicely with Max’s. It could be good to search out out extra about what’s occurred to her because the occasions of True Colours, and even when her look is simply within the background, it might doubtless assist in establishing a extra absolutely intertwined Life is Unusual timeline.

5. William Worth

Chloe’s dad William is a key determine within the Arcadia Bay chapters of Life is Unusual, even supposing he handed away earlier than the video games started. If we’re opening up alternate timelines, we’d like to see one by which Chloe and William are each current together- although possibly that’s simply wishful considering. If we do see William once more, Deck 9 needs to be cautious to make sure that his return doesn’t retract the significance of the unique recreation’s story.

4. Hawt Canine Man

Hawt Canine Man is an icon of the Life is Unusual franchise who’s in each recreation and timeline. There’s no means his mustard-loving self received’t return in some type or one other, and no means he wasn’t going to nab a spot on this checklist.

3. Rachel Amber

Main spoilers for the primary recreation ahead- irrespective of the way you play the unique Life is Unusual, you possibly can’t save Rachel Amber. Her presence, nevertheless, hangs over the whole recreation to the purpose the place Max can virtually really feel it, regardless of by no means having met her. Within the Life is Unusual comics, Max is ready to meet Rachel in an alternate actuality. What if an identical situation was doable with Max’s new energy? I’d like to see how the 2 would work together.

2. Kate Marsh

Kate Marsh is a fellow scholar that Max cares deeply about within the first recreation, and so it might, in fact, be nice to see her or hear from her once more in Double Publicity. Her storyline can be the primary to actually present gamers simply how highly effective Max’s rewind powers are and the way a lot of a distinction your decisions make within the Life is Unusual universe.

1. Chloe Worth

And now for the query all of us need answered- will Chloe be in Double Publicity? In one of many preview scenes for Double Publicity, we discover out that Max is holding a photograph of Chloe shut however that her buddy Safi doesn’t know Chloe. This suggests that Max is likely to be holding her previous a secret or that she hopes to flee it. Maybe the latter is extra doubtless since we now discover Max on the opposite aspect of the nation from the place she grew up. Years have handed because the first recreation, and I feel it’s truthful to say that Double Publicity‘s Chloe, if she seems, must be a really completely different character than the one we noticed in Arcadia Bay. 

We’re excited to see what Sq. Enix and Deck 9 have in retailer for us when Double Publicity releases on October twenty ninth, 2024.
