Producer Ryosuke Horii underscored that this spin-off game, featuring Goro Majima as a pirate captain, embraces a "very different" battle design emphasizing speed and unique gameplay. "It's fast-paced, and it has a lot of Majima's uniqueness, that's what we aimed for," he stated, highlighting the distinctiveness of the game compared to the traditional turn-based RPG approach used in recent mainline entries.
Majima will switch between two unique fighting styles, Mad Dog and Sea Dog, drawing upon his classic Yakuza fighting moves integrated into a weapons-based system focussed on the pirate theme. This new direction brings exciting variations to his gameplay, enriching the overall experience for fans.
As the franchise continues to evolve, fans have been treated to a plethora of new content. Since 2020, RGG Studio has delivered two mainline games, a remake, and a spin-off, showcasing a commitment to expanding the Yakuza universe while keeping the gameplay vibrant and engaging.
The latest installment, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, exemplifies the series' blend of narrative depth and action, featuring beloved characters Kasuga Ichiban and Kazuma Kiryu exploring Hawaii to uncover conspiracies and tackle challenges, reinforcing themes of life and atonement that's reflective of players' own realities.
