One of the features that will be highlighted is the Ichiban Kasuga pre-order bonus, which includes Ichiban and Nancy as crew members. Players also receive two of Ichiban Kasuga’s outfits from Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, which Majima can change into.
You can tune into the RGG Like a Dragon Direct below.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii takes place six months after Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and focuses on Goro Majima. Waking up on an island without his memories, Majima is saved by a young boy named Noah Rich. After coming to his senses, Majima sets out on an adventure in the Hawaiian waters with Noah to reclaim his memories and uncover treasure. Moreover, the game explores the aftermath of Infinite Wealth, including clean-up at Nele Island.
In this new title, Majima will have two fighting styles: Mad Dog and Sea Dog. You can jump in combat for the first time, so you will be able to use air combos with these styles. The Dragon Kart and Crazy Delivery mini-games will make their return from past installments. Further, fans may also customize Majima’s outfit just like Kazuma Kiryu’s in Gaiden.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii releases February 21 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. Lastly, fans can look forward to RGG Studio’s Project Century, a new action game set in 1915 Japan, and the next entry in the Virtua Fighter series.
