IGN has shared a video, showcasing the first 13 minutes of gameplay from Like a Dragon: Yakuza Pirate in Hawaii. In this video, we get to see some cut-scenes, a couple of fights, and the first main location that players will be visiting.
Yakuza in Hawaii. Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will be a spin-off, starring Goro Majima. Players will be able to assemble a one-of-a-kind pirate crew. And, like most open-world pirate games, it will allow you to upgrade the ship as you explore the open sea.
When an enemy pirate ship catches you in its sights, a real-time cannon battle will break out. During that battle, you’ll be able to quickly maneuver into position while avoiding fire, and deliver devastating damage to board the enemy ship and take down the captain. And, again, like Ubisoft’s Black Flag, you’ll be able to discover hidden islands and acquire loads of loot.
Moreover, the game will allow you to dynamically switch between the “Mad Dog” and “Sea Dog” fighting styles to mix-up attacks and deliver explosive combos, juggles, and aerial takedowns that reward your creativity with over-the-top action.
With “Mad Dog” style, you’ll be able to utilize speed, agility, and flair to deliver precise yet powerful blows that stun your enemies into submission. On the other hand, the “Sea Dog” style will have you dual-wielding short swords and deploying tricky pirate tools to kick some serious booty.
Finally, like a true Yakuza/Like a Dragon game, Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will feature numerous side missions and side activities.
SEGA plans to release Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii on February 28th, 2025. The game will also be using Denuvo on PC. However, we still don’t know its PC requirements.
Enjoy!
