Life is Strange prequel won't have the rewind feature from the first game nor Dotnoid as its developer. Instead the big changes are mainly in terms of the game's tone and Deck Nine as the developer.
Game itself is also going to be shorter than the first in terms of time needed to finish. Anywhere between 6-9 hours split between three episodes.
