Stranger Than Heaven, RGG Studio’s Yakuza prequel, gets story and cast reveal
Xbox and Sega revealed story details, cast, and a trailer for Stranger Than Heaven, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio's Yakuza prequel. The presentation outlined a five-era Tojo Clan origin tale spanning multiple decades and unveiled a star-studded cast that includes unexpected cameos from Snoop Dogg and Al Pacino. The scale, era-spanning story, and celebrity lineup signal Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio is aiming for a cinematic, large-scale reimagining of Yakuza lore that could redefine the franchise's origin story.
Y’all excited for the QWOP based combat system in Stranger Than Heaven
I hope it has a really boring Heavy Rain style tutorial where we have to brush our teeth and button our shirt before we get to punch someone
RGG generally don't get the new systems right the first time (Y6 as the first Dragon Engine game, Y7 as the first turn-based system, arguably Y3, etc) but everything else about STH looks so damn cool I would be excited as hell if YK3 never happened
I'm excited to see how Daidoji is involved, and of course the Kiryu/Ichiban/Majima/Saejima jazz quartet dlc!
