Life is Strange: Before the Storm [Steam], the standalone story adventure set three years before the original is officially heading to Linux! Feral Interactive have today announced that it will arrive sometime this Spring.
Feral Interactive ported the original Life is Strange episodes to Linux, so I’m not surprised they’re teaming up again to bring Before the Storm to Linux. I think they did a very good job of the port before and I certainly enjoyed it a lot. Life is Strange: Before the Storm - Deluxe Edition for Linux will include all three episodes along with the bonus episode, "Farewell".
This standalone prequel isn’t actually made by the originally developer Dontnod, instead the the publisher picked Deck Nine.

“With its tough yet vulnerable protagonist, Life is Strange: Before the Storm is a poignant evocation of teenage life,” said David Stephen, Managing Director of Feral Interactive. “The atmospheric soundtrack, sharp writing and captivating story combine to create an engrossing and moving game, and we very are excited for macOS and Linux players to experience it.”
Feral said that pricing and system requirements will be confirmed closer to release. You can see the official news post over on the Feral Interactive site. They also now have a mini-site set up for it with a few more details.
This is the third confirmed port from Feral Interactive for Linux this year, so we will have: Total War: THRONES OF BRITANNIA, Rise of the Tomb Raider and now this as well!
Will you be grabbing a copy when it releases for Linux? Exciting times!
Will update the article later with any more information once the official press stuff has been sent out to us.

Quoting: linux_gamerNever played a game like LiS, will buy the new one asap.
It's better to play the original LiS first though.
Edit: Oh, wait... Now I see what you meant :p

Vague phrasing by myself, can indeed be misinterpreted.
There was no game played by me beforehand, (that was as story rich, meaningful and had a similar emotional impact,)...

Quoting: BotonoskiI don't understand Life is Strange, or rather I don't understand why its so praised. I went to an Oregon university, I don't understand why anyone would want to experience that virtually with all the worst aspects of it magnified.
Because the game lets you break out?
(Or because it was decades ago?)
i wonder if the pool to decide what to port next was an waste of time, or if they will really start to porting one of the voted ones as soon as they are close to deliver those who they were already working on.
