After being a bit up in the air on if it’d be coming to Switch, Life is Strange: True Colors is now a game I’m doubly excited for. The idea of exploring empathy, both within its narrative and characters and visually through color, is one I’m on board with. I’m hardly the only one, though, as Square Enix has shared some new, commissioned art from none other than Ikumi Nakamura.
We are absolutely thrilled to share this incredible piece of commissioned art for #LifeisStrange #TrueColors by the amazing @nakamura193
Life is Strange: True Colors is out September 10 and is available to Pre-Order Now: https://t.co/tq0rQmG5pM pic.twitter.com/HAWT3UMDzS

Nakamura, whose previous credits include Ōkami and Bayonetta, is currently freelancing after leaving Tango Gameworks and the very spooky Ghostwire: Tokyo behind. That led to this gorgeous and color-changing piece centered on main character Alex Chen, who has the ability to read and perceive the emotions of others based on chromatic auras.
You’ll be able to explore her story for yourself when Life is Strange: True Colors comes to Nintendo Switch and more on September 10th. As for Nakamura, you can find her over on Twitter: @nakamura193.
