Kenta Hatanaka is credited on Stranger Than Heaven, RGG Studio's action-adventure set across five Japanese eras from 1915 to 1965. According to Yomimono's coverage, the game is scheduled for January 15, 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Kenta Hatanaka's most recent coverage in Yomimono centers on Stranger Than Heaven, the RGG Studio action-adventure shown at the TGS2026 Special Opening Night Live stream on September 16. The game opens with a young man mistaken for a murderer and chased by police. He misses the ship he meant to board, and that escape becomes the tutorial fight. The title is set across five eras and locations between 1915 and 1965: Kokura in 1915, Kure in 1929, Osaka in 1943, Atami in 1951, and Shinjuku in 1965.
The stream also detailed the Showbiz music production system, where protagonist Shin Oto works as a promoter. He gathers sounds around town, writes songs with composers, hires singers and musicians, and stages shows with effects including smoke and confetti. Everyday actions drive his growth: movement raises stamina and mahjong raises spirit. The game is scheduled for January 15, 2027 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Those two stories are the extent of Yomimono's coverage tied to Hatanaka. One is a product announcement for the Razer | Honkai: Star Rail collection, a collaboration with HoYoverse's space fantasy RPG themed after the character Silver Wolf LV.999. The other is a hardware release for the Tartarus V2 Pro left-hand keypad. Neither names a credit for Hatanaka. No other Yomimono story in this set states his role on any project, so the record remains thin.
