According to the latest financial report from Square Enix, the game *Life is Strange: Double Exposure* has been a significant financial disappointment for the company. This revelation came from the president of Square Enix during a recent briefing that outlined the company's performance. The financial losses incurred from *Double Exposure* were somewhat mitigated by the company's efforts to reduce development costs and the successful launch of the *Dragon Quest 3* remake. However, Square Enix has not disclosed the exact sales figures for this latest installment of *Life is Strange*, which only underscores its poor commercial performance.
The news may not have come as a shock to many, given the lukewarm response from the franchise's long-time fans following the game's announcement. Despite high hopes that the project would resonate with fans, the final product fell short of expectations. The game's end credits included a tease with the message "Max Caulfield will return," but the likelihood of continuing the story now appears slim.
During the financial report presentation, Square Enix chose not to elaborate further on the situation. The only information provided was that the game's performance was described as a "significant loss," a designation previously applied to other underperforming titles such as *Guardians of the Galaxy* and certain entries in the *Tomb Raider* series. This development casts a shadow over the future prospects of the *Life is Strange* franchise.
