Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Overview
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is an action-adventure game launching on February 21, 2025, for PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. Set after the events of Infinite Wealth, the game stars fan-favorite Goro Majima as the protagonist. Shipwrecked and suffering from amnesia, Majima is rescued by a young boy named Noah. Together, they set out on a swashbuckling seafaring journey to recover Majima’s memories—and maybe uncover some hidden treasure along the way.
Transforming from ex-yakuza to pirate captain, Majima takes players on an over-the-top adventure across Hawaii's open seas. The game returns to the classic brawler combat system of previous Yakuza games, deviating from the turn-based mechanics of its predecessor. Command your crew, hunt for treasure, sail the high seas, and, dish out plenty of beatdowns in Majima’s signature chaotic style.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Gameplay
Hand-to-Hand Combat
In Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, players can seamlessly switch between two distinct fighting styles: the nimble "Mad Dog" style and the brutal "Sea Dog" style.
The "Mad Dog" approach emphasizes speed, agility, and sharp technique, allowing for precise strikes that stun and juggle enemies in mid-air. The "Sea Dog" style, on the other hand, leans into the pirate theme, letting players dual-wield short swords and utilize a range of pirate tools like grappling hooks and explosives.
Naval Combat
As you sail the open seas, you'll need to upgrade your ship to face increasingly formidable foes. When you encounter an enemy pirate ship, a real-time cannon battle ensues. You'll need to strategically maneuver your ship to avoid enemy fire while delivering your own. Once you've breached their defenses, prepare for a crew-vs-crew brawl to defeat the enemy captain and claim victory.
Based on the game's Naval Combat trailer, it seems as though there will be a "Pirates' Coliseum," where players can participate in four game modes:
⚫︎ Tournament of Captains: Players "will have to conquer their enemies at sea, then board their ship for an all out melee!"
⚫︎ Madlantis Mania
⚫︎ Quick Clash
⚫︎ Swashbuckler Showdown
Side Activities
A Like a Dragon game isn't complete without its mini-games, which offer a fun and welcome diversion from the main story. These mini-games range from the lighthearted and social to the downright wacky. For instance, you can test your driving skills in a game of Dragon Kart, or belt out your favorite tunes at the Revolve Bar's Karaoke. If you're feeling adventurous, you can take on the Crazy Delivery challenge, which tasks you with delivering goods under a strict time limit. And for those looking for a bit of romance, there's even a dating mini-game to explore.
Recommend the game to:
⚫︎ People who like open-world games
⚫︎ People who like RPGs
⚫︎ People who want plenty of mini-games in their games
