'Tell Me Why' is coming out on August 27

The developers behind Life is Strange is set to launch its newest title next month. Dontnod's new game Tell Me Why will officially come out on August 27. Microsoft announced the release date during its July showcase, where it shared game premieres and updates. The developer revealed this narrative-driven title back in November, saying it's for the Xbox One and PC. Like Life is Strange, your choices in the game affect the outcome of the story

Tell Me Why follows a set of twins working through their childhood memories as a shared "supernatural bond" allows them to interact with these memories. The developer plans to release all three episodes simultaneously, unlike what it did with Life is Strange, where the company spaced out releases. You can check out the new trailer of the game above.

'Life is Strange' developer to open a studio in Montreal

French game developer Dontnod, who's known for Life is Strange, will be opening a new studio in Montreal. The company released a statement on Friday saying it's coming to this side of the world to be closer to its core North American audience. The Montreal studio will be working on a new project. According to Dontnod, it felt like Montreal's local talent pool will help diversify its culture and do the same for its creations. Two upcoming games from the studio include multi-platform game Twin Mirrors and the Xbox One-exclusive Tell Me Why.

By opening a studio in Quebec, Dontnod is also taking advantage of lucrative tax incentives for game developers who open shop in the province. Game publishers like Square Enix, Warner Bros, and Ubisoft all have Montreal-based studios.
