Like a Dragon: Yakuza Pirate in Hawaii is Much Bigger Than Like a Dragon Gaiden

In a recent Famitsu interview, Ryu Ga Gotoku’s president Masayoshi Yokoyama revealed that the story length time for the recently announced Like a Dragon title Like a Dragon: Yakuza Pirate in Hawaii will be significantly larger than the previous side title Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. Specifically, the game will be “about 1.3 to 1.5 times larger” than the previous game and will take place in Honolulu City.“As for the volume of this work, compared to “Ryu ga Gotoku 7 Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name” (hereinafter referred to as “Ryu ga Gotoku 7 Gaiden”), the story is about 1.3 to 1.5 times larger.” said Yokoyama. “We don’t even know the exact area of ​​the city itself, which is the setting… Of course there is Honolulu City, which appeared in “Ryu ga Gotoku 8” , and there are various other stages such as Mad Lantis, so I think the game volume is much larger than when “Ryu ga Gotoku 7 Gaiden” was released.”

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will launch on February 28, 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store. In the game, players “step into the steel toe boots of Goro Majima, a man who has lost his memory and reinvents himself as a pirate on the open sea.” “Embark on an over-the-top, modern-day pirate adventure with an ex-yakuza, now pirate captain and his crew as they engage in exhilarating combat on land and sea in the hunt for lost memories and a legendary treasure.”
