Aegiomon

The Time Stranger entry to the Digimon Story series will likely not directly connect to Cyber Sleuth. While the possibility of cameos and easter eggs cannot be dismissed, a direct connection in terms of the game's storyline will not be present.

The game immediately begins with an entirely new cast and no mentions of the events in the previous games and will thus be a standalone story.
