This is where Makoto begins to establish himself with the various yakuza organizations controlling the city \u2013 eventually becoming part of the Iwaki Family, Hiroshima\u2019s strongest organization.

Yokoyama-san shares that a \u201ctremendous secret will be revealed\u201d at this part of the game, and more will be revealed soon.<\/p>\n<p>We also get a glimpse at some gameplay activities that Makoto can partake in around these different locations, minigames appear to include arm-wrestling contests, dice-rolling, and card-based games in Fukuoka, and target shooting activities in Osaka.<\/p>\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"69fbd6da78874\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69fbd6da78874\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_08-b8fd9856c9a85efed081.jpg\" alt=\"Stranger Than Heaven screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-221115\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_08-b8fd9856c9a85efed081.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_08-b8fd9856c9a85efed081-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_08-b8fd9856c9a85efed081-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_08-b8fd9856c9a85efed081-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Greatest Showman<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A major part of <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em> revolves around Makoto and Yu\u2019s tenure as partners in showbusiness \u2013 not least because Makoto has a great talent for music, and a \u201ckeen ability to find the music in everyday life, [memorizing] the sounds as ideas for future compositions\u201d, according to Game Director Mikonobu Abe.<\/p>\n<p>This translates into an interesting gameplay mechanic \u2013 while exploring, Makoto can walk up to sounds happening in the world around him and select them to save as \u2018recordings\u2019, whether it\u2019s the noise of a sweeping broom, a passing train, or the thunk of an enemy hitting the curb during a combat sequence. These sounds can vary based on era, location, or time of day and are compiled in a library for later use.<\/p>\n<p>At certain points in the game, Makoto will encounter composers, and you\u2019ll be able to use the collected sounds to create original compositions that have different instruments and moods, an interesting mechanic that\u2019ll enable players to create some truly unique pieces of music.<\/p>\n<p>Collecting sounds and composing ties into Makoto\u2019s wider calling as a showman, producing and managing gigs and performances for other artists. This is where <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em> incorporates management elements; Makoto will organize the structure of various shows, decide which musicians will take part in it, and choose a setlist. During the broadcast, we see an example of this where the player can arrange a five-piece band on a stage by choosing from a roster of performers.<\/p>\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"69fbd6da78c5f\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69fbd6da78c5f\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_03-d48e5278c1b1b01a17f3.jpg\" alt=\"Stranger Than Heaven screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-221110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_03-d48e5278c1b1b01a17f3.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_03-d48e5278c1b1b01a17f3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_03-d48e5278c1b1b01a17f3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_03-d48e5278c1b1b01a17f3-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<p>Another key element of this management section is scouting \u2013 seeking out individuals with a gift for music to take part in your shows, and this can be done by gathering intel around town and observing NPC dialogues out in the world. As the story unfolds, Makoto will develop relationships with several performers, that all possess \u201cunique and remarkable abilities\u201d according to Abe-san.<\/p>\n<p>Among them are Singers, which appear to be a special class of characters that Makoto will encounter. Some of <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em>\u2019s Singers are played by real-world artists you may even be familiar with already. A notable character we\u2019re introduced to during the show is Takashi, played by J-Pop artist Satoshi Fujihara. Makoto meets Takashi through yakuza connections, and he eventually becomes Makoto\u2019s assistant and proteg\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>During the game\u2019s Shizuoka segment, Makoto will meet Suzy, an ambitious Singer played by American singer-songwriter Tori Kelly. \u201cThis collision of East and West results in a unique era that exudes both optimism and melancholy,\u201d Kelly says. \u201cStranger Than Heaven brings players inside Japan\u2019s showbusiness world at a pivotal moment in the country\u2019s history, and unsurprisingly, showbiz\u2019s customs and culture turn out to be just as cutthroat as the underworld\u2019s.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tori Kelly and Satoshi Fujihara also wrote <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em>\u2019s theme song, which you\u2019ll hear for the first time during the broadcast.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Combat<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Alongside a talent for singing and showmanship, Makoto also possesses incredible fighting ability. <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em> features an entirely new combat system, built specially for the game, and it\u2019s \u201cone of the biggest features of this title\u201d according to <em>Stranger Than Heaven <\/em>producer Hiroyuki Sakomoto. What makes this system particularly unique and compelling is that the player controls the left and right sides of Makoto independently.<\/p>\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"69fbd6da7902d\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69fbd6da7902d\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_02-67c3559c0d347c0470e4.jpg\" alt=\"Stranger Than Heaven screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-221109\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_02-67c3559c0d347c0470e4.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_02-67c3559c0d347c0470e4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_02-67c3559c0d347c0470e4-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_02-67c3559c0d347c0470e4-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<p>In practice, you\u2019ll use RB + RT to control Makoto\u2019s right arm and leg, and LB + LT to manoeuvre his left arm and leg. In the show, we see Makoto\u2019s right arm being held by an enemy, but he\u2019s still able to attack with his left. Alongside combo systems, players can \u201ccharge up\u201d their attacks by holding a button down and releasing it at the right moment for a more powerful hit. Players can block with one arm, and then counterattack with a swift attack from the other, or tackle an enemy using LT and RT together. Observing an enemy\u2019s actions to see what moves they\u2019ll pull makes for a compelling, dynamic combat experience, which is as much about reading the room as it is hitting the right inputs.<\/p>\n<p>Makoto\u2019s fists and feet are not the only tools on hand either \u2013 <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em> has a rich weapons roster ranging from basic knives, hammers, mallets, to masterworks of old like katanas, and \u201cbrand-new inventions of the era.\u201d These weapons can also be upgraded, and have special attacks and passive abilities, giving Makoto even more options in how to fight.<\/p>\n<p>We also see some intense cinematic design in select combat sections \u2013 including a close-quarters brawl inside a fast-moving car. Sakamoto also tells us that Makoto can perform powerful finishing moves, and context-sensitive attacks depending on the situation he\u2019s in. All of these elements come together to make a fresh, robust combat system perfect for <em>Stranger Than Heaven<\/em>\u2019s story.<\/p>\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"69fbd6da7935e\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"69fbd6da7935e\" class=\"wp-block-image size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_10-2007c4a82fab3b4b56e1.jpg\" alt=\"Stranger Than Heaven screenshot\" class=\"wp-image-221117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_10-2007c4a82fab3b4b56e1.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_10-2007c4a82fab3b4b56e1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_10-2007c4a82fab3b4b56e1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xboxwire.thesourcemediaassets.com\/sites\/2\/2026\/05\/STH_screenshot_10-2007c4a82fab3b4b56e1-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\"><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-label=\"Enlarge\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg><br \/>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<p>While we\u2019ve seen so much during Xbox Presents: A Special Look At Stranger Than Heaven, there\u2019s still much more to be uncovered, and we can look forward to learning more.
