It is from September 2022, ie from the day of the announcement, that there is no news of Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, the new title of the Yakuza series that will bring Kazuma Kiryu back into the spotlight; today we discover, thanks to a mistake made by SEGA on the PlayStation Store, details on history, gameplay and even some screenshots of the game.

We thus learn that in the game Kazuma will be a sort of secret agent equipped with technological gadgets and that the gameplay will see a return to real-time combat. Here is all the information and the first images of the game.

Erasing the past to protect the future

Once a legendary yakuza, Kazuma Kiryu staged his death and abandoned his name to protect his family. Now he finds himself in conflict with a mysterious figure who tries to get him out of hiding.

Codenamed "Joryu," Kiryu embarks on a gripping action narrative with bone-breaking combat in vibrant locations filled with exciting characters and activities.

Ultimate combat with two high-impact fighting styles

Dynamically switch from Yakuza to Agent fighting style in visceral hand-to-hand combat.

In Yakuza style, you strike fear into your enemies by unleashing wildly aggressive moves thanks to Kiryu's unparalleled strength and flair.

Or up the ante in Agent style, delivering shots with absolute speed and precision and using a range of high-tech gadgets such as electrified wires to stun enemies and then make them fly.

Adapt strategically to the situation and use both styles to dominate and destroy hordes of enemies.

Endless fun

Whether it's a brawl in the Castle's secret arena, singing a new song at karaoke, having a drink at a cabaret venue or competing on the toy car circuit, the world offers a variety of immersive experiences.

An intriguing informant named Akame also provides exciting sub-missions, involving you in an epic showdown that unfolds as you explore and enjoy Sotenbori, Yokohama, and the mysterious Castle.
