The holiday break is behind us, so let's dive back into the exciting world of gaming announcements! While we eagerly anticipate news on the Nintendo Switch 2, today's focus is on a beloved franchise: Like a Dragon. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio recently unveiled new gameplay footage for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, showcasing its pirate-themed Hawaiian adventure.
The presentation highlighted extensive ship customization, open-world sea exploration, thrilling naval battles, engaging mini-games, and diverse explorable locations. A key feature is Goro Majima's dual combat styles: a nimble, speed-focused approach and a powerful style utilizing short swords and pirate weaponry.
Players can assemble a unique crew of allies, each contributing to battles, exploration, and treasure hunting. The game promises hidden islands and original side quests to discover during gameplay.
A significant announcement came at the presentation's conclusion: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's "New Game+" mode will be a free post-launch addition! This is a welcome change from the previous Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth release, where this feature was exclusive to more expensive editions, drawing criticism of SEGA. This free update is excellent news, and the wait is short—only about six weeks until the official launch.
