Tori Kelly plays Suzy Day in Stranger Than Heaven, a talented singer who dreams of making it big and whose rise in show business begins when she meets Makoto Daito in the Shizuoka segment. Kelly also co-wrote and sings the theme song.
Suzy Day is a singer in Stranger Than Heaven, portrayed by the American singer Tori Kelly: "a talented singer who dreams of making it big," whose rise in show business begins when she meets Makoto Daito, in SEGA's Sep 25, 2026 description. Xbox Wire places her in the Shizuoka segment of the story (May 6, 2026), which is the postwar seaside resort of Atami 1951. Kelly also co-wrote the game's theme song with Satoshi Fujihara and sings on it. The clip is the May 6, 2026 Xbox Presents broadcast, where Tori Kelly introduces Suzy; its Japanese subtitles place the meeting in Atami in 1951.

Who is Suzy Day?
Little more than SEGA's line has been shown: Atami is the least seen of the five eras as of Nov 3, 2026. In the May 6, 2026 Xbox Presents, Kelly described the postwar era as one where East meets West and the result "exudes both optimism and melancholy" (Xbox Wire). Since Makoto is a showman who scouts singers and stages concerts, Suzy is the kind of star that Showbiz is built around; the broadcast showed her singing on a stage, but no hands-on preview has shown her in a show. See Characters and Cast. The clip is the same broadcast: Kelly on the era, and Suzy singing.
Tori Kelly and the theme song
The theme "STRANGER THAN HEAVEN" features Snoop Dogg, Satoshi Fujihara, Ado and Tori Kelly (SEGA, May 7, 2026), and Xbox Wire credits Kelly and Fujihara with writing it. It debuted in the May 6 broadcast; see Music and Theme Song.
