I loved how the game ended, I really don't want any prequel/sequel tbh.

Where could they go with a prequel?? I hope we aren't going to play Chloe.
Deck Nine has been developing the game for a long time now, yes it's a prequel were you will finally get to explore the relationship between Chloe and Rachael. I think it will be interesting to see Nathan now that the player knows about what he will become but Chloe doesn't. Mostly due to the fact Dontnod is busy on multiple other projects.

So if I get this right Gamekult found the image of Chloe and Rachel sitting on the train in the code of Deck Nine's website (which they supposedly took down since then), which seems to confirm the imgur galery (that also includes that screenshot) to be legit.
Honestly though, not sure how I feel about this. Does Life is Strange really need a prequel? By a different developer no less? Hopefully the story was at least penned by LiS's writers.

SPILL IT NERD
*Last episode*
*Chloe's adventure is at an end and she's driving off into the sunset*
*Her companion asks her what she thought of things*
*Camera slowly zooms in*
"I guess you could say that life is..."
*Chloe smiles at the camera*
"...hella strange."
*Cut to black. Cue whiny indie song.*

Ugh more Rachel and Chloe?
Forget it, I was totally ready to see an interesting new story, I couldn't care less about Rachel and Chloe in a damn prequel.

Oh boy, I'd love more Life is Strange.
A prequel makes perfect sense.

Dontnod is still doing its own sequel, which supposedly is just what you want.

I'll take it... but pls, don't mess this up, Deck9.
If they're going to go this route, Rachel better be a fucking magical magnetic character. Everyone idolized the shit out of her.
Edit: Life is Strange being on PS+ this month also makes a bunch of sense if this is true. At E3: "Go play the first season now; episode one of the prequel will be in September!"

are gonna see chloe go from meek to rebellious? thats what these shots imply
Dontnod is still making Vampyr. Presumably once that's done they'll make season 2 of LiS. Maybe it's in preproduction and the prequel will fill in the gap.

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
"Before Life Was Strange"
Kinda hyped for this. More LiS can only be good news.
(I really hope DONTNOD's sequel is "Life is too strange")

Life Will Inevitably Be Strange
Unfortunate that this leaked. I'm glad that this isn't the sequel, but another project. With it taking place in the same town, hopefully that aspect of it still feels novel, with new areas or a new perspective on familiar ones.
It'll be cool to finally see what Rachel was about.

This is hella awesome.
Apparently, yeah. Dontnod released video earlier this month celebrating 3 million sales for Life is Strange. In that video they said that the Life is Strange team is back together developing a new Life is Strange game ("we can indeed confirm that the original Life is Strange team at DONTNOD are working on a brand new Life is Strange game"), but which won't be ready to be shown at E3.
Since this prequel is from a different studio (and looking at the screens likely ready to be announced soon) I'd assume that this isn't the project Dontnod was talking about.

Excited to play if true, loved the first. I normally hate prequels but maybe this will be the Fire Walk with Me of videogame prequels by actually making the story of Rachel incredibly emotional and in turn making her story in LiS even better? I can only hope

Deer Walk with Me.
Maybe Rachel will have rewind powers?
