Trailers
The premiere trailer was revealed at Sony’s 2025 State of Play and showed off a small amount of gameplay:
Story and setting
We don’t know much about the game’s story as of yet, but Digimon Story Time Stranger definitely has a similar vibe to the Cyber Sleuth games. The trailer reveals that the characters must use their Digimon to prevent an “apocalypse in two parallel worlds”, likely referring to the Digital World and our own.
The game also looks like it’ll be borrowing from the Digimon World series, most notably, Next Order which set the series in an open world for the first time. A playable character can be seen riding a Gabumon across some colorful terrain, suggesting that this may be a mode of travel in Time Stranger.
The title also implies time travel will be involved, which will possibly be used to defeat this game’s threat, as well as time being used as a weapon by them.
