The makers of the Yakuza games have revealed the title of the historical brawler previously teased as "Project Century". It's called Stranger Than Heaven.
REALLY excited since it looks like it will be continuing the “detective” aspects of Judgment. And, as Lost Judgment showed, RGG understand how to do “Things are massively fucked and you can barely see through the tears and growls of impotent rage but we need to focus on the case” as a way to really amp up the melodrama during Those Scenes.
Also REALLY REALLY concerned because, as expected, this is going to be Taichi Century across different decades in Japan… and they aren’t skipping the 1940s. INCREDIBLY good potential for the kind of social commentary RGG is amazing at but also… INCREDIBLY bad potential for the really fucked up propaganda that Ishin reminded us all of.
