RGG Studio's Next Title: A Shocking Reveal?
Another Unexpected Twist?
At the 3rd day of Anime Expo in Los Angeles, RGG Studio hosted "Essence of Fandom: Like a Dragon & Yakuza Experience." The event, hosted by Linda "VampyBitMe" Le, featured Like a Dragon Chief Producer Hiroyuki Sakamoto and Ichiban Kasuga's voice actor, Kazuhiro Nakaya.
During the event, attendees received a tantalizing hint about the upcoming game: "We can't tell you what kind of game it is, but I will tell you, you'll be surprised." This was reported by @TheYakuzaGuy on Twitter, who also confirmed it's a new addition to the Like a Dragon franchise.
The shift to a full-fledged JRPG in Like a Dragon 7 was already a significant departure from the series' action roots. This new "surprise" could take many forms: a rhythm game based on the karaoke mini-game, a spin-off featuring other series characters, or even a remake or sequel to past spin-offs like Yakuza: Dead Souls or the Japan-exclusive Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan. The possibilities are endless, and the anticipation is high.
