Stranger Than Heaven

So Project Century finally gets a name and a new trailer:

Might be a dual timeline game since the reveal showed 1915 and this one shows 1943. This or they've changed the concept along the way, dunno how far into the development cycle it is.

Is this in the same universe as previous Yakuza games or a completely new game?

Most likely a completely new project by the looks of it, especially considering no mainline Yakuza character was alive yet in the timeframe shown.

My guess is it'll be a sort of a spiritual successor to classic Yakuza in a grittier tone, since mainline Yakuza games are now turn-based RPGs.

The only thing that's really certain regarding the universe is that the locations are going to be real places, as usual.

The original reveal trailer got updated with the title as well:

Not sure what's up with the timelines but it'd be really cool to roam around districts in Taisho-era Japan, NGL Knowing how violent and gritty the plots get in these, 1915 and 1943 are excellent choices. Young Daito in 1915 and old Daito in 1943? Count me in
