Another Bold Departure?
At the Essence of Fandom: Like a Dragon & Yakuza Experience event during Anime Expo 2024 in Los Angeles, Chief Producer Hiroyuki Sakamoto and voice actor Kazuhiro Nakaya (Ichiban Kasuga) teased the upcoming title. According to attendee @TheYakuzaGuy on Twitter, the developers stated, "We can’t tell you what kind of game it is, but I will tell you, you’ll be surprised." They confirmed it's a new addition to the Like a Dragon series.
Given the series' shift to JRPG gameplay in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, the nature of this "surprise" remains open to speculation. Possibilities range from a rhythm game based on the karaoke mini-game, a spin-off featuring other series characters, or even a remake/sequel to past spin-offs like Yakuza: Dead Souls or the Japan-only Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan. The anticipation is palpable!
