Ahead of the Xbox Partner Preview, it was confirmed that Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio would participate to showcase a new trailer for their upcoming action-RPG, Stranger Than Heaven. With the event now concluded, this new footage has been released.
The trailer confirms the game’s ambitious scope, spanning multiple cities and distinct historical periods: 1915, 1929, 1943, 1951, and 1965.
While precise plot details remain scarce, RGG Studio representative and executive producer Masayoshi Yokoyama provided additional insights in a dedicated blog post. He stated: “We can’t say much more [about it] than what was shown today. But as you can imagine, 5 cities and 5 eras make for a massive undertaking. We are putting an enormous amount of care into bringing these eras and locations to life, which we believe are rarely explored in games. It’s truly a unique experience you won’t find anywhere else.”
For those eager to learn more about Stranger Than Heaven, RGG Studio has confirmed a dedicated broadcast set for May 7th. This Xbox-hosted event, titled “Xbox Presents: A Special Look at Stranger Than Heaven,” is scheduled for 00:00 BST / 1:00 CET on May 7th, providing an opportune viewing time for European fans.
The game’s release date was not specified, with only a “soon” mentioned regarding its launch.
