Sega of America and Ryu Ga Gotoku (RGG) studio have announced the newest entry in the Like a Dragon™ series: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, a modern-day pirate adventure that follows the once-feared legend of the yakuza world, Goro Majima. The game will be released worldwide on the 28th of February 2025 and will be available on PlayStation®5. Players can pre-order various editions of the game starting today.

Announced during the latest RGG Summit livestream event, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is a brand-new action adventure that follows Goro Majima across land and sea. One year after the events of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth™, Majima washes ashore on a deserted island amid the scattered remnants of a shipwreck. Unable to remember even his own name, Majima travels across the vast ocean in search of clues to piece together his lost identity, accompanied by a boy named Noah, who saved his life. Before long, they’re caught up in a conflict between cutthroat criminals, modern-day pirates and other scoundrels over a legendary treasure.

New Adventures and Play Style

As Majima, players will assemble a one-of-a-kind crew while upgrading their ship, the “Goromaru,” battling enemy pirate ships and conquering seas and hidden islands alike. In combat, players can deliver explosive combos and aerial takedowns by dynamically switching between two fighting styles: dual-wield short swords or deploy pirate tools with the swashbuckling “Sea Dog” style or utilize speed, agility and flair to defeat enemies into submission with the infamous “Mad Dog” style.

Pre-Orders Available Now

Players can pre-order the following versions of the game starting today:

• Standard Edition
• Collector’s Edition – includes the base game, Deluxe Edition DLC Code, and special limited merchandise, including a replica of Goro Majima’s eye patch, treasure coin pin, and more. Please visit the official website for further details.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is the latest in a banner year for the franchise, which saw its most recent mainline entry, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, launched earlier this year. Fans can also look forward to the Amazon Original live-action series Like a Dragon: Yakuza when it launches on Prime Video on the 24^th of October 2024.
