New Game+ mode in Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will be free

The gaming world is back in full swing after the holiday break, and we have exciting news about a highly anticipated title! While the Nintendo Switch 2 remains on our radar, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio recently unveiled fresh 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. Goro Majima, a fan-favorite character, will boast two distinct combat styles: a nimble, speed-oriented approach and a more brutal 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 a wealth of hidden islands and original side quests to discover.

A significant announcement came at the presentation's close: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's "New Game+" mode will be a free post-launch addition via a patch. This is a welcome change from the previous Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth release where this feature was exclusive to a more expensive edition, a decision that drew criticism from SEGA. This free update is excellent news, and we only have to wait approximately six weeks for the game's official launch.
