Square Enix is hosting an actual Everyday Hero photography contest, inspired by the events of Life is Strange.

As with the in-game contest, participants are encouraged to submit photos of "ordinary people doing extraordinary things." One winner will receive the Everyday Heroes Scholarship Fund, worth $10,000. The top three finalists will have their photos printed, framed, and signed by the DONTNOD staff, while other participants will have the chance to see their work featured on the Everyday Heroes site.

You'll have until February 16 to submit a photo of someone "that truly captures their heroism and be eligible to win." The contest is only open to legal residents of the United States and Canada—excluding Quebec.


Square Enix and DONTNOD Entertainment released Life is Strange's final episode in October of last year. Since then, the companies have been using the game's success to promote goodness in the world—starting with its #EverydayHeroes anti-bullying campaign.

Life is Strange's limited edition box set is available now from the Square Enix store, on all platforms—Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.
