Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii might be the silliest entry in the Like a Dragon series, but don't let that fool you – it's a surprisingly meaty adventure. Wondering how long it takes to complete and how many chapters there are? Let's dive in.
How Many Chapters Are in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii?
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii features five chapters, the same number as Like a Dragon: Gaiden, but significantly fewer than Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Here's the breakdown:
- Chapter 1: Shipwrecked
- Chapter 2: Heart of Darkness
- Chapter 3: The Old Man and the Sea
- Chapter 4: Treasure Island
- Finale: White Whale
Chapter 1 throws you right into the action as Goro Majima, washed ashore on the idyllic, yet mysteriously named, Rich Island. Struggling with amnesia, Majima only vaguely remembers his past as a Yakuza. The mystery of his identity forms the core of the narrative.
While the familiar Kamurocho district from previous games is absent, you'll explore the vibrant landscapes of Hawaii's main island, a location also featured in Infinite Wealth (appearing in Chapter 2).
How Long Does it Take to Beat Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza?
The playtime varies greatly depending on your approach. A focused playthrough, concentrating solely on the main story, will take approximately 16-20 hours. However, if you're aiming for 100% completion, including all side quests and optional activities, expect to invest around 40 hours. Don't worry about missing anything; you can always revisit activities after finishing the main story.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii's Place in the Timeline: Should You Play Infinite Wealth First?
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is set shortly after the events of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and may even hint at a potential sequel. While you don't need to play Infinite Wealth beforehand, the game provides sufficient context.
However, a word of caution: Pirate Yakuza reveals a significant plot point from Infinite Wealth within the first few hours. If you intend to play Infinite Wealth, it's recommended to tackle it first to avoid spoilers.
So there you have it – a comprehensive guide to the chapters and estimated playtime of Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. Enjoy your Hawaiian adventure!
