Strelka Stories
Strelka Stories was CyberConnect2's 15th anniversary project and would have taken the spot as the Little Tail Bronx's third main title. It was first announced in 2010 through a teaser site made just for the game yet would be quietly cancelled later.
The story to Strelka Stories was never fully discussed. What is known through its few promotional images and interviews is that it would feature "adults who were once youths" and a space-conquering theme. The game's overall tone, as compared by CC2's president and CEO Hiroshi Matsuyama, would have been close to Gainax's Gurren Lagann and Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Development
Development began in 2010 when the early teasers drawn by Inumaru were uploaded online by CC2. No other information would be available for the game's development for quite some time and was quietly cancelled. During CC2's panel at Anthrocon 2023 it would be revealed that the company deemed Strelka Stories to be too ambitious of a title to tackle at the time.

Trivia
- The world of Strelka had been referenced in Hiroshi Matsuyama's Gallery, a small series of short manga going over the Red Data Children.[1] This shows that at least one area of the game's setting may have had an incredibly cold climate.
- With the world of Little Tail Bronx taking place in pieces of land that were previously European & Asian countries, it's possible that Strelka's setting was previously Russia before the Reset.
