RGG Studio has announced Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, which will be a Majima-focused spinoff in which he, like it says on the tin, becomes a pirate yakuza in Hawaii. Both physical and digital versions of the game are available for pre-order.
The official RGG Studio X (formerly known as Twitter) account released a trailer for the game. It sets up the premise on the game, in which a rough-looking Majima awakes on a beach near Hawaii. Turns out he lost his memories, but a helpful little kid rescues him. After learning about the issues facing the islands, as well as the presence of yakuza, Majima decides to become a pirate. All of the pirates in the game look like what you would typically imagine, or like they’re extras from Pirates of the Caribbean. But it takes place in the modern ages.
You can watch the trailer here:
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will return to the series’s hack ‘n’ slash action in comparison to the newer turn-based combat of 7 and 8. Majima has no reason to indulge in Ichiban’s delusions, after all. You’ll also be able to customize your pirate ship and sing karaoke.
As a note, there are different versions of the game to get. The Hawaii Collector’s Edition will come with an acrylic stand, a pirate flag, a treasure coin pin, and eye patch, and a voucher for the Deluxe Edition’s DLC. DLC from the Deluxe Edition contains additional characters for your crew, extra karaoke CDs, and customization options for your ship and Majima. Finally, the Complete Box will contain the Deluxe Edition DLC, an acrylic art board, a Majima eye patch, and a Pop-Up Pirate Jr. toy. Takara Tomy helped to make the toy.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will come out on February 28, 2025 for the PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Windows PC via Steam. Pre-ordering the game will add Ichiban and Nancy to the crew, as well as grant you Ichiban’s two outfits to wear.
