Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Makes a Strong Case for an Outlandish Spin-Off Revival



Quote
The beauty of Yakuza is its blend of absurdity and sincerity: the series expertly balances comedic chops and earnest, emotional, corny story beats to create an experience unlike anything else on the market. Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is a prime example of this—even its mouthful of a title alludes to its ridiculous nature. Starring an amnesiac Goro Majima fulfilling the role of a modern-day pirate, the action-brawler manages to do the impossible and crank up the silliness of the mainline franchise, making it a particularly outlandish entry.
Bringing back Yakuza: Dead Souls wouldn't seem so ridiculous in this pirate-themed game's wake.

Virtua Fighter developer discusses ties to the Yakuza / Like a Dragon franchise for latest entry
