Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii scored 79/100 on first reviews

Just days before its official launch, the gaming world got a sneak peek at Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii through reviews from various media outlets. The PS5 version of this action-adventure game has garnered an average score of 79 out of 100 on Metacritic, signaling a solid reception from critics.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio appears to have crafted what many consider the most outlandish spin-off in the series to date. Reviewers have lauded the studio's decision to revert to a fast-paced, action-oriented combat system, a hallmark of the franchise prior to 2020. This time, the combat is enriched with naval battles, injecting a fresh and engaging element into the gameplay.

The protagonist, Goro Majima, has been a highlight for many, earning praise for his role. However, the narrative has received mixed feedback, with some critics labeling it as unremarkable when compared to the mainline entries in the series. Additionally, the game's settings have faced criticism for their repetitiveness, which some reviewers felt detracted from the overall experience.

Despite these criticisms, the consensus among critics is that Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will undoubtedly captivate both dedicated fans of the series and newcomers eager to explore its unique world. The game's blend of familiar elements with new, exciting features makes it a compelling addition to the franchise.
