SEGA and RGG Studio have released a new story trailer for STRANGER THAN HEAVEN, offering another look at the upcoming action-adventure game ahead of its January 15, 2027 release. Titled “Act 2: Kure Story Trailer,” the latest footage shifts the spotlight to 1929 Kure, where protagonist Makoto Daito finds himself becoming increasingly entangled in the world of the yakuza.
The new trailer follows Daito as he receives a ceremonial sake cup from Genzo Iwaki, marking another step in his growing involvement with the organization. As he works his way up through its ranks, Daito becomes increasingly committed to its interests, seemingly willing to do whatever is necessary to advance its ambitions. What begins as a glimpse into his life in Kure offers a closer look at the dangerous path he is choosing to follow.
STRANGER THAN HEAVEN will take players across five different cities and historical periods, with its story spanning half a century, from 1915 to 1965. The Kure chapter is the second installment in a series of character-focused trailers intended to introduce audiences to Daito’s life throughout the game’s various settings.
Players who missed the previous footage can also check out the “Act 1: Kokura Story Trailer” through the official SEGA West YouTube channel. SEGA and RGG Studio have confirmed that additional trailers exploring Daito’s experiences in the remaining cities will be released sequentially in the future.
STRANGER THAN HEAVEN launches January 15, 2027.
