The holiday break is behind us, so let's dive back into some exciting gaming news! While we eagerly anticipate Nintendo Switch 2 updates, today's focus is on a fan-favorite franchise. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio recently unveiled new gameplay footage for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, showcasing its pirate-themed Hawaiian adventure.
The showcased gameplay highlighted extensive ship customization, open-world sea exploration, engaging naval battles, diverse mini-games, and a wealth of explorable locations. Goro Majima will feature two distinct combat styles: a swift, agile approach and a more brutal style utilizing short swords and pirate weaponry.
Players can recruit unique crew members, each offering support in battles, exploration, and treasure hunts. The game promises hidden islands and original side quests to discover.
A significant announcement came at the presentation's close: 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 mode was initially exclusive to a pricier edition, drawing criticism from SEGA. This positive development means we only have to wait approximately six weeks for the game's official release.
