Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has announced a new Like a Dragon Direct for January 9th at 9 am PST. It will offer “first looks” and a deeper gameplay dive into Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, the developer’s next spin-off in the series. Thankfully, there won’t be any spoilers.

Starring Majima Goro, Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii sees him waking up on Rich Island with no memories. Shortly thereafter, Majima commands his own pirate crew and vessel, venturing to Nele Island and even Honolulu from Infinite Wealth. Players can engage in naval combat and board opposing ships, taking down enemies with the new Sea Dog Style with its cutlasses and firearms.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii launches on February 21st for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, and PC. While it’s a spin-off from the mainline series similar to Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, it’s 30 percent longer. Check out some gameplay of the various play spots and the English voice cast.
