RGG Studio, the visionary creative team behind the Like a Dragon and Yakuza franchises, has unveiled a compelling new trailer for its upcoming project, Stranger Than Heaven. The latest footage confirms that the game’s ambitious narrative will traverse five distinct historical epochs. Furthermore, fans won’t have to wait long for more details, as a dedicated deep-dive presentation is scheduled for this May.
Initially teased under the working title Project Century during The Game Awards 2024, the game immediately stood out for its jazz-infused aesthetic and multi-period setting.

While a specific release window remains elusive, the new trailer—which debuted during the recent Xbox Partner Preview—showcases the specific eras players will inhabit: 1915, 1929, 1943, 1951, and 1965.
