Another Unexpected Twist?
During the third day of Anime Expo 2024 in Los Angeles, RGG Studio hosted the "Essence of Fandom: Like a Dragon & Yakuza Experience." The event, moderated by Linda "VampyBitMe" Le, featured Like a Dragon Chief Producer Hiroyuki Sakamoto and Ichiban Kasuga's voice actor, Kazuhiro Nakaya.
The studio representatives teased the upcoming game, stating, "We can't tell you what kind of game it is, but I will tell you, you'll be surprised." This was confirmed by @TheYakuzaGuy on Twitter, who also clarified it's a new addition to the Like a Dragon franchise.

Given the series' shift from action beat 'em up to JRPG with Like a Dragon 7, the nature of this "surprise" is highly anticipated. 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 possibilities are endless, and the mystery only heightens the excitement.
