A ratings board leak has detailed Life is Strange: Reunion, a new game in the narrative adventure series that focuses on the return of fan-favorite character Chloe.
No, haven’t read them, but I know that both decisions are canon. Life is Strange 2 already dealt with it. But I think including Chloe as a character in a game in some meaningful way that will make fans happy while respecting that both options are canon is harder than whatever the comics did. I doubt Deck Nine is capable of properly handling this.
spoiler
My theory what they will do: They will retcon the two timelines from Double Exposure into one timeline in which Chloe is dead and one in which Chloe is alive, just like with Safi. As the timelines are merged into one at the end of Double Exposure Chloe is alive again even if you chose the ending in which she died. That probably also means Arcadia Bay is no longer destroyed, there are rumors that Max might return there.

Both decisions are canon
:D
The comics are nowhere as thrilling, but I quite liked it.
ps: I haven’t played Double Exposure. Up until now I didn’t even know it was about Max lol
