Yakuza: Like a Dragon
Yakuza: Like a Dragon is an immersive RPG developed and published by Sega, marking the eighth major installment in the acclaimed Yakuza franchise. Launched in 2020, this game showcases a fresh protagonist, Ichiban Kasuga, while shifting away from the classic action-packed combat style to adopt a dynamic turn-based combat system with a unique party of characters. Set against the vibrant backdrop of the fictional Yokohama city, players embark on Kasuga’s gripping quest for vengeance, navigating the intriguing depths of Japan’s criminal underworld.
Ichiban Kasuga, a low-ranking member of a Tokyo yakuza family, finds himself facing an 18-year prison sentence for a crime he didn’t commit. Despite his hardships, he maintains his faith and serves his time, only to return to a world where no one is waiting for him, and his clan has been decimated by the one person he admired the most.
Determined to uncover the truth behind his family’s betrayal and reclaim his life, Ichiban gathers a quirky band of misfits: Adachi, a rebellious cop, Nanba, a homeless former nurse, and Saeko, a fierce hostess on a mission. Together, they become embroiled in a brewing conflict in Yokohama and must step up to become the unlikely heroes they never envisioned themselves to be.
