Get ready, Yakuza fans! A Like a Dragon Direct is set for later this week, offering a closer look at Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii before its February launch. Unlike recent mainline entries, this title returns to the fluid, real-time combat of the original Kiryu saga, starring Goro Majima in a Hawaiian adventure following the events of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth.
RGG Studio, the developer behind the Like a Dragon series, made a splash at the 2024 Game Awards with reveals of Virtua Fighter 6 and the new IP, Project Century. While their work on Virtua Fighter 6 surprised many, Project Century – a 1915 Japan-set action brawler with potential Yakuza universe connections – generated even more buzz.
The upcoming Like a Dragon Direct, focusing on Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, streams Thursday, January 9th at 12 PM EST on YouTube and Twitch. RGG promises new gameplay details without major story spoilers.
Like a Dragon Direct Details:

Much of Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii's combat and minigames have already been showcased. While the Direct is officially focused on this title, speculation runs high about potential teases for other projects, including the rumored Yakuza 3 Kiwami remake or perhaps another glimpse at Project Century (though less likely given the event's name).
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii sets sail on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC February 21st, promising a unique experience amidst a crowded February release lineup including Monster Hunter Wilds, Assassin's Creed Shadows, and Avowed. The upcoming Direct will reveal what other surprises RGG Studio has in store.
