One day before its official release, Life is Strange: Double Exposure full reviews have been released by gaming journalists. The game has achieved an average Metacritic score of 72 out of 100, based on 35 reviews. Critics have described Double Exposure as an emotional and engaging game, though not as successful as it could have been.

Reviewers praised the intriguing storyline, diverse characters, and the familiar warmth of the series, largely thanks to the main protagonist, Max Caulfield. Now grown up, Max has evolved alongside the Life is Strange audience, a detail fans of the series are sure to appreciate.

However, Double Exposure feels somewhat rushed. Developers struggled to fully develop characters, including key ones, which at times hinders strong emotional connections. Some reviewers also expressed concerns about the ending, which gives Double Exposure the feel of a spinoff or a foundation for future games.

One area where all reviewers agreed was the soundtrack, which remains as outstanding as in previous Life is Strange titles.
