There’s a good chance that many will be playing the upcoming Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii in its original Japanese, given that’s how many prefer to play the Yakuza games, though the series does consistently boast excellent localization, and with a new trailer, Sega has shed some light on the upcoming action-adventure spinoff’s English dub.
Specifically, the trailer reveals the cast of actors who’ll be portraying some of the game’s main players in English. Matthew Mercer will return as Goro Majima, while wrestler Samoa Joe is also set to star in the game, as previously confirmed. The game’s English voice cast will also include the likes of Debra Wilson (and Queen Michele), Jeremy Brandt (as Jason Rich), and James Kirkland (as Taiga Saejima). You can view the trailer below for more details.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is due out on February 21, 2025 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio is currently also busy with multiple non-Yakuza projects, with a new Virtua Fighter and Project Century both having been unveiled at The Game Awards last week.
