Yakuza prequel Stranger Than Heaven officially features Tupac playing a character

As shown during the Summer Games Fest tonight, Yakuza prequel Stranger Than Heaven won’t just have Snoop Dogg and his son in the game. No, it’ll also somehow feature Tupac, the legendary rapper.

Its trailer, shown during SGF, also confirmed that Stranger Than Heaven would release on January 15 next year, adding to the ever-expanding list of 2027 releases, which’ll probably make it one of the biggest years for games in the industry’s history. As for Tupac, his likeness will be used to portray one of the characters in Stranger Than Heaven, itself apparently closely related to the United States within its story.
