There aren't many moments that can't be immediately reversed in Life is Strange, and Kate's potential suicide is one of these rare instances. Choosing the right dialogue options to save Kate is essential, and players can have a much easier time if they made some emphatic choices at earlier points in the story.

It's still possible to save Kate even if Max wasn't as nice as she could have been toward her bullied friend. This guide will cover how to save Kate in Life is Strange by providing the correct dialogue choices, no matter what players have done up to this point.

Updated on August 27th, 2022 by Hodey Johns: Kate's potential suicide happens toward the first part of the story, and yet there are multiple factors that go into it. Odds are good that, unless players have been following a very specific guide, they can fail to save her through a combination of choices and dialogue options. So when gamers get to the scene itself, they might feel like it is hopeless. The good news is that Kate can likely be saved, even with less than optimal choices up to this point. For clarity, this guide has been updated with tables that detail the outcomes of each dialogue choice, regardless of the actions taken up to this moment.

How to Save Kate in Life is Strange

First Dialogue Choice

-OR-

The options for this dialogue will change depending on if Max took a photo instead of intervening in Episode 1 or not. It's impossible to fail at this stage if Max intervened, but she can still save Kate if she took a photo instead.

Second Dialogue Choice

-OR-

This dialogue choice will change based on whether or not gamers answered the call from Kate earlier. If they answered it, there is no way to fail. Those who ignored the call need to be careful which option they select.

Third Dialogue Choice

-OR-

This difference between the two charts here relies on whether Max decided to look for proof from Nathan's phone or not before going to the police. Those who decided Kate should go straight to the police can't fail, but those who tried to collect evidence on their own first should be cautious.

Fourth Dialogue Choice

This time, there is only one possible set of choices since the viral video is released no matter what Max does. Kate needs to be built up is she can be convinced to carry on.

Fifth Dialogue Choice

Players might remember seeing pictures and letters from Kate's family while exploring her room for photo collectibles in Episode 2 of Life is Strange. If gamers have been taking notes, they'll remember that one such photo had Kate's father and sisters in it.

Sixth Dialogue Choice

One failure doesn't result in an automatic death for Kate, but the game is keeping track of too many failures. This dialogue pops up if gamers have been less than perfect in talking Kate down and acts as a final way to salvage the situation.

After Kate is saved, she will continue to appear in Max's story during Life is Strange. She can be visited in the hospital, and even gets to help Max at a later point in the story. Not saving Kate casts a somber tone throughout the rest of the game, with multiple characters expressing their regret at how they treated her.

Life is Strange is available now for PC, Mobile, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
