Free prequel to Life is Strange 2 is now available for download on Steam, uses the Denuvo anti-tamper tech


Square Enix has just released the free prequel to Life is Strange 2, called The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit. The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is an original narrative experience set in the Life is Strange universe that contains links to the brand new story & characters of Life is Strange 2, and some choices and actions will link to your Life is Strange 2 experience.

In The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, players assume the role of Chris and his super-hero alter-ego, Captain Spirit, in which they will have to complete a series of missions as Captain Spirit and discover secret unlockable content.

Now while this is a free game, Square Enix has implemented the controversial Denuvo anti-tamper tech. Because… you know… apparently the publisher does not want anyone to pirate this free game. It doesn’t make any sense but hey, this is Square Enix we’re talking about.
