'Historical accuracy wasn't the goal from the very beginning' — Stranger Than Heaven director says while research for its era-spanning game was 'really difficult,' the cities will still have 'a lot of fiction'
Mikinobu Abe, director of RGG Studio's upcoming game Stranger Than Heaven, discussed the extensive research involved in depicting multiple cities across five decades. While historical accuracy was not the primary goal, the team aimed to capture the essence and atmosphere of the eras through creative liberties and inspiration from period art and equipment. The game is set to release on January 15, 2027, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
