New details regarding the upcoming Like a Dragon (formally Yakuza) title have surfaced online after a PlayStation Store tracking website was updated.

The details:

  • Originally discovered by Gematsu, PlayStation Store price tracking website PSDeals has revealed that Like a Dragon Gaiden will be released on November 9, 2023, for PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X/S, and PC. The price tracker also reveals that those who purchase the PS4 version will be able to play the PS5 version for free. To access the current-generation version, the PS4 disc must be inserted into the PS5, which means those with a digital-only PS5 will have to repurchase the game or avoid a physical copy entirely.
  • The site also reveals some gameplay details, with two different fighting styles, Yakuza and Agent, allowing the series' protagonist, Kazuma Kiryu, to switch from heavy blows to using high-tech gadgets during combat. The iconic side activities, such as karaoke, cabaret clubs, and even the pocket circuit, which was last seen in Yakuza Kiwami, make a return.
  • Five new screenshots are also available, showing Kiryu and his fighting styles, as well as a glimpse of the Sotenbori district, which has appeared in several titles in the Like a Dragon series.
  • Offline multiplayer is also back, allowing two people to play the game's various minigames, though full-fledged co-op is extremely unlikely. Remote play is also supported on both the PS4 and PS5, allowing the game to be streamed to a mobile device, PC, other PlayStation consoles, and the upcoming Project Q later this year.
