Life Is Strange: Reunion released on March 26, 2026, in the US and on Steam. The launch is now in the past, so this is a record of the release date and reported unlock schedule—not a live countdown. Square Enix Japan lists March 27, reflecting the local date there.
When did Life Is Strange: Reunion release?
Life Is Strange: Reunion launched on March 26, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC through Steam and the Microsoft Store, according to Deck Nine Games’ announcement. The US PlayStation Store listing and Steam listing also show March 26.
Square Enix’s Japanese product page gives March 27, 2026. That is the date in Japan’s local calendar, not evidence of a different worldwide launch plan. Dates shown by regional storefronts can differ when the same release moment falls on different local dates.
What time did Life Is Strange: Reunion unlock?
GamesRadar’s release-day report listed the game as becoming available at 9:00 a.m. PDT / 4:00 p.m. GMT / 5:00 p.m. CET on March 26, 2026. Those exact hours are attributed to that report; Deck Nine’s announcement confirms the release date and platforms but does not give an unlock hour.
