Life is Strange: Episode 4 launches next week, here's the trailer

1m sales milestone reached.

The wait for Life is Strange: Episode 4 is nearly over - the excellent episodic series' penultimate chapter launches next week.

Max's episode four outfit is sure to spark some theories...

PC, PlayStation 3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One owners can download Episode 4: Darkroom from Tuesday, 28th July.

That means a launch the following day on PS3/PS4 in Europe when the PlayStation Store updates here.

Life is Strange developer Dontnod is also celebrating 1m sales for the game - a huge milestone for the small team.

Episode four sees main character Max delve deeper into the disappearance of Rachel Amber as the situation in Arcadia Bay starts to look, well, decidedly not good.

We won't say much more in case you haven't yet finished episode three, but it seems like the series' various plotlines are drawing together.

Get your first glimpse at the episode - and some of those not so good things in Arcadia Bay - via the new trailer below:
