Yakuza developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s recent RGG annual summit presented a triptych of Yakuza-oriented title announcements: historical samurai spinoff Like a Dragon: Ishin! is set to make its Western debut come the remake’s release in February 2023; elsewhere, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name focuses on Yakuza series mainstay Kazuma Kiryu after the events of Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. Whilst focus of the RGG Summit centred mostly on Like a Dragon: Ishin!, the announcement of the next title in the long-running Yakuza series – Like a Dragon 8 – has certainly whet the most appetites.

Before we continue, it’s worth pointing out that the moniker ‘Like a Dragon’ – as Yakuza has always been known within its native Japan – has replaced the old Yakuza branding. Sega’s reasoning is ‘Like a Dragon’ more closely aligns Western iterations of the series with its Japanese counterpart and will be how the series is known worldwide going forward.

Like a Dragon 8 will be a continuation of 2020 reboot Yakuza: Like a Dragon, a title Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio bravely hit the reset button for after seven mainline entries. It deviated superbly from previous Yakuza titles, opening the door for series newcomers whilst – mostly – appeasing long-time fanatics.
