Developed by the French of Dontnod, Tell Me Why is once again a narrative game and we know that it will include 3 chapters lasting between 2h and 3h. It will be released this summer exclusively on Xbox and PC as well as in the Xbox Game Pass .

Like Life is Strange games, Tell Me Why will therefore be classified M as Mature , and the classification file tells us a little more about what we will find in the game.

It is an adventure game in which players follow the story of twin brothers and sisters by discovering the secrets of a hidden past. Players use special powers to navigate through physical and logical puzzles, while making choices for dialogue and action that influence their progress. A dramatic sequence depicts a figure stabbed in the back with scissors; blood is seen on the hands of another character. The dialogue contains a reference to drugs.

Unlike Life is Strange, the classification does not mention nudity or sexual or alcohol reference.

Recall that Tyler will be the first transgender hero in a video game, as pointed out by Florent Guillaume, Director of the game Tell Me Why.

"We love them both," adds Florent Guillaume. "And we especially thank Microsoft for their support and openness with regard to the character and identity of Tyler as a transgender person. "
