RGG Studio recently unveiled a cryptic teaser for their next game at Anime Expo, promising fans a "surprising" new entry in the Like a Dragon franchise. Let's delve into the details.
At the Essence of Fandom: Like a Dragon & Yakuza Experience event during Anime Expo 2024 in Los Angeles, Like a Dragon Chief Producer Hiroyuki Sakamoto and Ichiban Kasuga's voice actor, Kazuhiro Nakaya, teased the upcoming title. They stated, "We can’t tell you what kind of game it is, but I will tell you, you’ll be surprised," as reported by @TheYakuzaGuy on Twitter. The tweet confirmed the new game as a fresh addition to the Like a Dragon series.
Given the series' shift to a JRPG format in Like a Dragon 7, the nature of this "surprise" remains open to speculation. Possibilities range from a rhythm game based on the karaoke mini-game, a spin-off featuring other series characters, or even a remake or sequel to past spin-offs like Yakuza: Dead Souls or the Japan-exclusive Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan. The anticipation is palpable!
