Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio first teased “Project Century” in 2024, and at Summer Game Fest it debuted a new trailer revealing the game’s full name: Stranger Than Heaven. The game clearly draws on the bareknuckle brawling of the Yakuza series, but this time is set in the jazzy Japan of 1943.
It’s hard to get a full sense of the story from the trailer alone, but similar to RGG’s previous games, it looks like Stranger Than Heaven will feature an open-world full of enemies to whoop and narrative choices that’ll be as determined by who you punch as who you help. If the player character Mako Taito isn’t a private eye, he does appear to be investigating something.
RGG’s released a Like a Dragon spin-off, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii earlier this year. Before that, it’s last major entry in the melodramatic crime saga was Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth in 2024. Besides the gameplay similarities, it’s not clear if Stranger Than Heaven is set in the same world as RGG’s other open-world action RPGs. At the very least, it does seem incredibly stylish, though.
Stranger Than Heaven is still in-development and doesn’t currently have a release date.
