Future Glimpses and New Frontiers: The Evolution of the Yakuza/Like a Dragon Series
Recent developments have spurred much discussion regarding the future of the acclaimed Yakuza/Like a Dragon series. The innovative approach by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has earned admiration, particularly with their shift from real-time action to a turn-based RPG format. This change has breathed new life into the series, catering to fans who were growing weary of the old formula and rekindling interest in narratives focused on Japan's criminal underworld.
Exciting prospects seem to be on the way. A live action series titled "Like a Dragon: Yakuza" is set to premiere this autumn on Prime Video, presenting a fresh perspective on the renowned protagonist Kazuma Kiryu. Additionally, anticipation builds as another installment in the Like a Dragon series is expected to astonish audiences at this year's Tokyo Game Show.

Although details are scarce, this trademark has ignited discussions about the nature of the upcoming game. Fans online have speculated it could range from a crossover with Sakura Wars to a game-as-a-service model. However, the truth remains to be discovered in the forthcoming months.
