The holiday break is behind us, so let's dive back into some exciting gaming news! While we eagerly anticipate updates on the Nintendo Switch 2, today's spotlight shines on a fan-favorite franchise. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio recently unveiled a gameplay presentation for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, showcasing its Hawaiian pirate adventure.
The presentation highlighted extensive ship customization, open-world sea exploration, thrilling naval battles, engaging mini-games, and diverse explorable locations. Goro Majima will boast two distinct combat styles: a swift, agile approach and a more tactical style utilizing short swords and pirate weaponry.
Players can assemble a unique crew of allies, each contributing to battles, exploration, and treasure hunts. The game promises hidden islands and original side quests to uncover during gameplay.
A significant announcement concluded the presentation: the highly anticipated "New Game+" mode will be a free post-launch addition via a patch. This is a welcome change from Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, where this feature was initially exclusive to the pricier edition, drawing criticism from SEGA. This positive development means we only have to wait approximately six weeks for the official launch.
