"Gang of Dragon, a new game from former Yakuza/Like A Dragon visionary Toshihiro Nagoshi, made its world premiere at The Game Awards, and it looks extremely similar to the Sega's own gangster franchise. The debut trailer shows a back-alley stabbing, a showdown in a bar, and plenty of action, with what appears to be South Korean actor Ma Dong-seok in the starring role. It all looked very reminiscent of the Yakuza/ Like A Dragon franchise (and even has dragon in its own name)."
"Nagoshi was a 30-year veteran of Sega who became best known for his work on the Yakuza/Like A Dragon franchise. He served as director of Yakuza/Like A Dragon studio Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios for a number of years before departing Sega in 2021. He then formed Nagoshi Studio in 2022, under the umbrella of Chinese publisher NetEase. While Nagoshi is working on Gang of Dragon, Ryu Ga Gotoku also has a new Yakuza-esque game in the works, Stranger Than Heaven."
Gang of Dragon premiered at The Game Awards with a trailer that depicts a back-alley stabbing, a bar showdown, and extensive action sequences featuring what appears to be South Korean actor Ma Dong-seok in the lead role. The game bears strong resemblance to Sega's Yakuza/Like A Dragon franchise, including a dragon-themed title. Gang of Dragon is said to be deep in development and currently has no announced release date. Toshihiro Nagoshi spent around 30 years at Sega and led the Yakuza franchise before leaving in 2021 and founding Nagoshi Studio in 2022 under NetEase. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios is also developing a new Yakuza-esque title, Stranger Than Heaven.
