GoG Yakuza Games Scrub A Bunch Of People From The Credits, Including Series Creator Toshihiro Nagoshi



Quote
While the games themselves appear to be identical to the versions already available on Steam, there were two notable differences.
The first was that, this being GoG, there was no DRM (Digital Rights Management).
The second is that in a number of the games changes have been made to the credits that omit some of the most important people involved in the development of the series.
There’s clearly some studio politics involved in this that I absolutely do not want to get into (because I have no idea what has gone on!), but whatever has gone down at Ryu Ga Gotoku over the last few years, it’s still a very bad look to actively scrub someone’s name off the credits of a video game that has been out for years.
It’s an even worse look to ...

Like a Dragon Gaiden – Daigo, Majima, and Saejima Reportedly Playable in Battle Arena



Quote
Set between the events of Yakuza 6: The Song of Life and Yakuza: Like a Dragon, it will outline events leading up to Kiryu’s role in Infinite Wealth.
However, following its trailer at the Summer Game Fest Showcase, Sega announced that pre-orders would receive a Legendary Fighter Pack, which features Daigo Dojima, Majima Goro and Taiga Saejima.
While Sega hasn’t officially confirmed their roles, a new panel at Anime Expo 2023 (rough translation via @CyricZ42 on Twitter) revealed they’re playable in the Battle Arena.
It’s likely an optional mode separate from the campaign, which bestows different rewards. Again, we’ll need ...

Kaoru Sayama will not return in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth as a prominent role in the main story, says RGG Studio



Quote
The recent RGG Summit Summer 2023 event showed a clip of Kiryu telling Ichiban about a proposal. Many fans soon believed that this might be a reference to Kaoru, with several theories being made about a potential return.
During the interview, Yokoyama shot down the theories as he explained:
“With regards to the proposal, it was actually very lighthearted. There wasn’t much depth to that. He just wanted to go with the flow of the conversation and say, Hey, you know what? I proposed before without thinking much about it. So, there won’t be any further talking about the actual proposal in the background of that conversation because it was mainly just out of fun.
We did actually have a deep talk on this on one of our show on livestream, so you can ...

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name further details story, characters, and organizations











Quote
Having become an agent for the Daidoji Faction and assigned the codename “Joryu,” Kiryu hunts down an illegal gold smuggling site in the Port of Yokohama.
It was supposed to be an easy assignment; little more than loose change for the organization.
When he arrives, he finds several dozen Daidoji agents on standby. Despite having reached the rank of chairman within the Tojo Clan, Kiryu has maintained a relatively low profile among his peers here.
Unable to resist their provocation, he ends up violently lashing out, which only widens the gaping hole ...
