Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, the next entry in the series by SEGA and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has been announced today for an early 2025 release.
The new entry in the series will star fan-favorite Goro Majima as he hunts down treasure and gets involved in some naval battles in Hawaii. The game will also be a direct sequel to Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, as Majima will have to deal with some of the consequences caused by Ichiban Kasuga's actions in the previous entries in the series. The reveal trailer also confirms that fans of the series won't have to wait much longer to experience Majima's treasure-hunting adventure, as the game will launch on February 28th on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One.
The latest entry in the series is the aforementioned Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. You can learn more about it by checking out our review.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth serves as the real bridge between the Yakuza and Like a Dragon series into one cohesive experience. It’s the perfect sendoff for Kiryu and a passing of the torch to the plucky Ichiban Kasuga. In a lot of ways, Infinite Wealth builds upon the past with callbacks that series fans could appreciate. It’s a Japanese RPG experience that could only best be described as Ryu ga Gotoku Studio’s Metal Gear Solid 4 moment.
