As a long-time fan of the Yakuza series, having supported it since the early days when it was underappreciated by many, I’m really excited about this new Like a Dragon pirate game. Back then, we imported the games, spread the word, and stood by the series. It really hit its stride with Yakuza 0, but when Sega shifted to turn-based combat in Like a Dragon, it felt like the series was taking a different direction.
That said, I’m glad Sega is now offering something for both old and new fans. Games like Like a Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Name, Judgment, and this upcoming pirate game bring back the real-time beat ‘em up combat that I, and many others, loved in the original Yakuza games.
It’s great to see that Sega is willing to balance both styles, keeping turn-based for those who enjoy it while also giving us longtime fans that classic gameplay we grew up with. This is a must-buy for me simply because it brings back that old-school feel. There’s room for both styles in gaming, and it’s awesome to see Sega respecting both fanbases.
