According to voice actor Yong Yea who serves as Kiryu Kazuma’s English voice actor, the upcoming action adventure game Like a Dragon: Gaiden will launch without an English dub. The feature will instead be released as a post-launch patch. However, a release date for the patch has not been announced, so players will play with English subtitles at launch. Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name will launch on November 9, 2023, for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC via Steam.
Since Like A Dragon: Gaiden is a few weeks away and many may not know about this, thought I should let you know the English dub will not be available on the 11/8 launch date and will release as a post-launch patch (no official date yet). Hope you'll look forward to it! pic.twitter.com/BWJcM5GvNz

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is an action adventure video game developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and published by SEGA.
Erase Your Past to Protect Your Future
Once a legendary yakuza, Kazuma Kiryu faked his own death and abandoned his name for the sake of protecting his family. Now, he is thrust into conflict by a mysterious figure attempting to drive him out of hiding.
Under the codename “Joryu,” Kiryu embarks on a gripping action narrative with bone-shattering combat in vibrant locations filled with exciting characters and activities.
Ultimate Combat with Two High-Impact Fighting Styles
Dynamically switch between the Yakuza and Agent fighting styles in visceral melee combat.
With the Yakuza style, strike fear into enemies by unleashing wildly aggressive moves powered by Kiryu’s unparalleled strength and flair.
Or up the ante with the Agent style by delivering blows with absolute speed and precision, while using an array of high-tech gadgets like electrified bind wires to stun enemies then send them flying.
Strategically adapt to the situation and leverage both styles to dominate and destroy hordes of enemies.
Endless Entertainment
Whether you’re brawling in the secret Castle arena, singing a new karaoke song, enjoying a drink at the live-action cabaret club, or racing in the pocket circuit, the world offers a variety of immersive experiences.
An intriguing informant named Akame also provides thrilling sub-missions, drawing you into an epic showdown that unfolds the more you explore and enjoy Sotenbori, Yokohama and the mysterious Castle.
