Can You Play Stranger Than Heaven Early?
No, the Deluxe Edition of Stranger Than Heaven doesn’t have an early access incentive, so everyone will be able to play on the same date.
Is Stranger Than Heaven Coming to Xbox Game Pass?
Yes, Stranger Than Heaven is coming to the Ultimate tier of Xbox Game Pass on day one.
Is Stranger Than Heaven Coming to PlayStation Plus?
No, Stranger Than Heaven is not coming to any tier of PlayStation Plus.
I’m glad that RGG Studio is diversifying its portfolio, drawing on everything it has learned from the Yakuza series. Stranger Than Heaven looks like an evolution of its existing design sensibilities, blending high-octane action with a cinematic presentation. The studio is also working on Virtua Fighter Crossroads, the next major entry in the iconic fighting game series, which appears far more ambitious than anything the franchise has seen before.
