The holiday break is behind us, so let's dive back into some exciting gaming news! While we're all anxiously awaiting Nintendo Switch 2 updates, today's focus is on a beloved franchise: Like a Dragon. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio recently unveiled new gameplay footage for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, showcasing its pirate-themed Hawaiian adventure.
The presentation highlighted extensive ship customization, open-world sea exploration, thrilling naval battles, engaging mini-games, and diverse explorable locations. Goro Majima will boast two distinct combat styles: a nimble, speed-focused approach and a more brutal style utilizing short swords and pirate weaponry.
Players can assemble a unique crew of allies, each contributing to battles, exploration, and treasure hunts. The game promises hidden islands brimming with secrets and original side quests to uncover.
A significant announcement came at the presentation's close: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's "New Game+" mode will be a free post-launch addition! This is a welcome change from the previous Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth title, where this feature was exclusive to the pricier edition, drawing considerable criticism towards SEGA. This free update is excellent news, and with the release date just a month and a half away, the wait won't be too long.
