Introduced at TGS 2022 amid Yakuza / Like a Dragon themed announcements Like the dragon Ishinis a remake of a spin-off that was never released outside of Japan. This game Kenzan’s favorite, another previous spin-off that never made it to the West. Reason? Because Ishin is a fan favorite and Kenzan needed to make some changes.
Speaking to OneMoreGame at the Tokyo Game Show, the executive producer of Yakuza said, Masayoshi Yokoyamaand executive producer Hiroyuki Sakamoto explained why they chose Ishin over Kenzan.
“for everyone fan comments When we got it, many wanted Ishin’s remake more than Kenzan, “double stated.” We also felt that Issin was more popular and that if we wanted to remake Kenzan, we had to change the way. land that will be somewhat time consuming and costly. We need to find the right moment to consider Kenzan’s remake.”
Therefore it seems Like the dragon Ishin A better choice for developers and fans alike. Recall that the game is planned for PS4 and PS5 and the release date is February 21, 2023. The game will have Italian subtitles, but for a very specific reason it will only be dubbed in Japanese.
Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name will also be released next year. Instead, we’ll have to wait until 2024 for Like a Dragon 8 and then Yakuza Like a Dragon.
