Sega Sammy released its second quarter results for fiscal year ending in March 2022, revealing nearly 500,000 copies were sold for the Yakuza / Like a Dragon series.
The Yakuza / Like a Dragon series sold roughly 490,000 copies from June to August 2022. Sales figures include physical shipments and digital copies sold worldwide. Additionally, Judgment series games were included in the total. A combined total of 960,000 copies were sold in the first and second quarters.
No new Yakuza / Like a Dragon titles were released within the second quarter. Yakuza: Like a Dragon and Lost Judgment were likely main contributors for the latest sales data from Sega Sammy. Going forward, the Yakuza series will be known as Like a Dragon in Japan and overseas.
Multiple new games are in development at the studio including Like a Dragon 8 and Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. The next major Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio release, Like a Dragon Ishin, launches February 21, 2023 across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
