Life is Strange is the latest video game confirmed to be getting a TV adaptation.

As first reported by Variety, Amazon Prime Video has greenlit a live-action Life is Strange show. It'll be led, produced, and penned by The End of the F***ing World writer, Charlie Covell, alongside Story Kitchen executive producers, Dmitri M. Johnson, Mike Goldberg, and Timothy I. Stevenson.

"Story Kitchen has always believed that Life is Strange deserved to be more than just a game – it's a cultural touchstone," said Story Kitchen's Johnson and Goldberg.

"After a decade-long journey, we're honoured to be bringing this beloved story to Amazon MGM alongside our incredible partners at Square Enix, our brilliant showrunner/writer Charlie Covell, and the amazing team at LuckyChap. Together, this thoughtfully assembled dream team is ready to share Life is Strange with the world in an entirely new way!"

"It's a huge honour to be adapting Life Is Strange for Amazon MGM Studios," Covell added. "I am a massive fan of the game, and I'm thrilled to be working with the incredible teams at Square Enix, Story Kitchen, and LuckyChap. I can't wait to share Max and Chloe's story with fellow players and new audiences alike."

Square Enix studio heads Jon Brooke and Lee Singleton said, "For years we've had so many people asking us to create a Life is Strange TV show, and we're so pleased to finally partner with Amazon MGM Studios, who we trust will do an incredible job bringing our universe to life."

The franchise's most recent release, Life is Strange: Double Exposure, launched amidst a major backlash from fans upset at how the game handled the ongoing storyline of returning protagonist Max Caulfield, and the impact of players' choice at the beginning of Life is Strange 1.

The situation turned uglier when Square Enix removed leaked development material from a popular Life is Strange fan subreddit, even though commenters provided proof they worked at Deck Nine and claimed Double Exposure's story changed due to feedback from Square Enix itself. Square Enix said it had acted to remove the content based on "appropriate legal requirements" for "intellectual property violations".

"Like its own hero's dabbling with time travel, Life is Strange: Double Exposure highlights the troubles of trying to revisit old memories, while raising unanswered questions about the future," we wrote in Eurogamer's Life is Strange: Double Exposure review.
