Separate Ways l Yakuza 7 Like a Dragon Chapter 1 PC Walkthrough Gameplay Part 2
Ch. 1 - Light & Shadow
In 2000, Ichiban Kasuga is a member of the Arakawa Family, a Tojo Clan subsidiary led by Masumi Arakawa; who is also like a father to Ichiban, since he raised him after his original foster father died. On New Year's Eve, Ichiban and his friend Mitsuo Yasumura are doing collections work in Kamurocho for the family and, despite collecting enough money to meet their quota from a con-artist and from an indebted construction worker, Ichiban's good nature compels him to give the money back to the conman's victims and to give the worker a loan extension.
The same evening, Ichiban takes his boss' wheelchair-bound son; Masato Arakawa, to a small party at the hostess club where his girlfriend Yumeno works. Masato and Ichiban had been close friends when they were younger, but Masato has grown distant in the past years and resents Ichiban having to chauffeur him around because of his disability. Nonetheless, the pair enjoy a good time at the New Year's Eve celebration, until the night's mood is soured when they discover that Yumeno is cheating on Masato with Juro Horinouchi; an older man who serves as a high-ranking officer in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.
Later, Ichiban returns to the Arakawa Family office, where he's berated and beaten by the family Captain, Jo Sawashiro, for his failure to meet his collection quota. Ultimately Ichiban is spared punishment at Patriarch Arakawa's insistence; who decides to take him out for dinner to thank him for taking his son out earlier. During their night out, Arakawa tells Ichiban the story of how his son ended up disabled: In 1977, Arakawa was dating a soapland girl named Akane despite his patriarch's disapproval. The two had a son together but; on the night Akane gave birth, Arakawa's family found out and put out a kill order on both of them. Akane managed to flee the hospital with their child, but realized that she was being followed. She briefly shook off her pursuers and put her baby into a coin locker to keep him hidden, after which she called Arakawa and told him where to find him, so he could get their baby while she evaded the yakuza. Arakawa found their son in the coin locker, but not before he'd become ill from his time in the cold metal box. After getting him treatment, his son survived, but ended up disabled. Despite this, Arakawa's family captured and killed Akane, after which Arakawa massacred them in retaliation.
Ichiban and Arakawa spend the rest of the night together until the year ends, after which they go their separate ways. The following morning, when Ichiban goes to the family office, Patriarch Arakawa gives him some bad news: Apparently Captain Sawashiro has murdered a member of the rival Sakaki Family. Since the Sakaki hold a higher-rank within the Tojo Clan than the Arakawa, the murder of one of their officers by an Arakawa officer could mean the dissolution of the family. To prevent this, Arakawa begs Ichiban to take the blame for the murder and go to jail in Sawashiro's place. Though hesitant, Ichiban ultimately agrees. The following day, Ichiban turns himself into the police and confesses to the murder.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon (龍が如く7 光と闇の行方, Ryū ga Gotoku 7: Hikari to Yami no Yukue, lit. "Like a Dragon 7: Whereabouts of Light and Darkness"), also known as Yakuza 7 and previously known as Shin Ryū ga Gotoku (新龍が如く, lit. "Like a New Dragon" or "New Like a Dragon"), is a role-playing game (categorized as a "Dramatic RPG" on SEGA's official Ryu ga Gotoku 7 website)[3] for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PC and PlayStation 5.
It has been developed by Ryu ga Gotoku Studio as the eighth main installment (fourteenth overall) of the Yakuza series. It was released in Japan on January 16, 2020 and had a worldwide release in November 2020. The PS5 version was released on March 2, 2021 as a free upgrade for all owners of the PS4 version and as a seperate purchase.
Like a Dragon features two massive changes compared to all of the previous main installments. The first is that it now stars a new protagonist; instead of Kazuma Kiryu, the main protagonist of this story is Ichiban Kasuga. The second is that the game's combat is now that of a turn-based RPG, rather than a real-time beat'em'up like the previous games.
