*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* might just be the most whimsical installment in the *Like a Dragon* series, but how does it stack up in terms of size against *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth*? If you're curious about the game's length and chapter breakdown, you're in the right place.
How Many Chapters Are in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*?
*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* consists of five chapters, matching the number in *Like a Dragon Gaiden* but falling short of the expansive chapter count in *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth*. Here's a detailed look at each chapter and its title:
- **Chapter 1: Shipwrecked** - Your journey begins as Goro Majima, a former Yakuza, who washes ashore on Rich Island in Hawaii, suffering from amnesia. Despite knowing about the Yakuza and the world at large, Majima's personal identity remains a mystery, even when addressed by name.
- **Chapter 2: Heart of Darkness** - This chapter takes you to Hawaii's main island, a location familiar to fans of *Infinite Wealth*.
- **Chapter 3: The Old Man and the Sea**
- **Chapter 4: Treasure Island**
- **Finale: White Whale**
Unlike other games in the series, *Pirate Yakuza* does not feature the Tokyo district of Kamurocho, which has been a staple in previous titles. However, the absence of this familiar setting allows for a fresh exploration of Hawaii's landscapes.
How Long Does It Take to Beat *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*?
Like its predecessors, *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* offers a plethora of side-quests and optional activities. If you focus solely on the main storyline, you can expect to spend around 16-20 hours to complete the game. This allows you to revisit and engage with any missed content post-completion.
However, for those aiming to fully immerse themselves in every aspect of the game, completing all activities and quests, you're looking at a commitment of approximately 40 hours.
When Does *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* Take Place? 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 serve as a precursor to a potential sequel. New players can jump right in as the game provides necessary background information.
Yet, if you're planning to play *Infinite Wealth*, consider doing so before *Pirate Yakuza*. The latter game reveals a significant plot point from *Infinite Wealth* early on, which could impact your experience with the former.
