Description
Early players commonly report finishing around 10–11 hours, depending on how much they explore and read optional content
Game Rant: 9/10 (90)
Strong narrative exploring guilt, trauma, and the Max-Chloe relationship with heartwarming moments and meaningful small details in the mystery. Choices feel limited (mostly A/B tests), and gameplay is straightforward, but the emotional payoff justifies the reunion and redeems the previous entry.
DualShockers: 8.5/10 (85)
A sincere, tender, and heartfelt goodbye to Max and Chloe with strong emotional depth, a compelling arson mystery, and replay value through journals/evidence. Held back by technical hiccups, underdeveloped side characters, and choices that often lack real weight/impact. Delivers satisfying closure for longtime fans.
But Why Tho?: 8.5/10 (85)
Not perfect, but hits the most important notes. The reunion of Max and Chloe is a phenomenally emotional experience, providing a worthy finale that focuses on what fans love about the pair.
COGconnected: 85/100
A fitting conclusion to Max’s story. Chloe’s return creates a memorable, witty duo that lingers. Plays it safe without evolving the formula much, but delivers a solid, memorable tale for fans of the iconic couple.
Game8: 84/100 (8.4/10)
Carefully crafted emotional send-off with nuanced relationships, heartfelt resolutions, and attention to small details. Strong audio and dual-protagonist moments shine, though gameplay feels limited (mostly dialogue/cutscenes), endings are safer than expected, and there are technical issues. Great value for fans seeking closure.
GAMES.CH: 80/100 (80%)
Does a good job narratively and atmospherically. Gameplay is varied but typical/not very challenging for the series. Fans benefit greatly from prior knowledge of Max and Chloe; newcomers may miss context.
Combo Infinito: 80/100 (80)
Reconnects with the series' roots through an emotional story that fixes some past issues, meaningful choices, and improved time manipulation. Chloe’s integration strengthens it, though technical problems, reused environments, and pacing hold it back somewhat. A solid, heartfelt step for the franchise.
GamesRadar+: TBD (review in progress)
Praises the return of Chloe and rewind mechanics, and walking back some prior issues. Criticizes it for getting bogged down in nostalgic lore and past drama, with the mystery compelling at first but character elements feeling sidelined.
User Scores (Early)
