Stranger Than Heaven to be Featured in Xbox Partner Preview

There’s going to be an Xbox Partner Preview on March 26 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET, and one of its featured games will be Stranger Than Heaven.

Stranger Than Heaven, in case you’ve forgotten, is the upcoming new game from RGG Studio originally revealed under the working title Project Century before being given its official title.

We’ve seen two trailers for it so far, one set in 1915 and one set in 1943.

Both have been scant on details, so there are a lot of different theories right now. Personally, I’m a fan of the theory that the protagonist is immortal and the game will follow him in different eras across 100 years (hence “Project Century”). Other people think it could actually be set in the Yakuza universe and be a prequel story leading up to the formation of the Tojo Clan.

(Then there are the Daidoji theories, but let’s not get into that.)

Well, between the Xbox Partner Showcase having “an in-depth look” at Stranger Than Heaven and an official Twitter account appearing for the game, it sounds like we should be getting a lot of answers soon. Even if the preview only takes a look at gameplay, it can’t be too much longer before we learn what the game is actually about.

All the controversy surrounding Kiwami 3 left me with negative feelings, so here’s hoping Stranger Than Heaven looks fantastic and lays any lingering fears to rest.

What do you think we’ll see from Stranger Than Heaven on Thursday?
