Sega announced the guest lineup for the Stranger Than Heaven stage at its Sega/Atlus booth during Tokyo Game Show 2026, which runs from September 17 to September 21 at Makuhari Messe. The event spans five days, with both special stages and gameplay stages scheduled. Actor Tsuyoshi Ukaji is set to appear on the September 18 special stage, while professional wrestler Kenny Omega joins the gameplay stage on September 19. Voice actor Akio Otsuka takes the special stage on the same day. The September 20 lineup includes streamer kson on the gameplay stage, with the special stage guest still listed as coming soon. The final day, September 21, features Ushizawa on the gameplay stage and a special last stage with actors Yu Shirota and Dean Fujioka. Sega plans to stream each stage program on the RGG Studio official YouTube channel.
The guest schedule gives Stranger Than Heaven an unusually varied stage presence across the five-day show. Sega packed the first public day, September 19, with both Kenny Omega and Akio Otsuka appearing in separate programs. The September 21 special last stage carries the two biggest mainstream names in Yu Shirota and Dean Fujioka.
Several slots remain unannounced, most notably the September 20 special stage guest, listed only as coming soon. Ushizawa, confirmed for the September 21 gameplay stage, and kson, set for the day before, round out the roster alongside the already-named actors and wrestler.
All stage programs are scheduled to stream on the RGG Studio official YouTube channel, which extends reach beyond attendees at Makuhari Messe. The event runs September 17 to September 21, with business days on the 17th and 18th and public days from the 19th through the 21st.
