Like a Dragon: Ishin!

This remake of 2014’s Japan-only Ryū ga Gotoku Ishin transplants the all-action gameplay of Sega’s Yakuza series to the 19th century Bakumatsu phase of the late Edo period, with an open-world feudal domain replacing the familiar streets of modern-day Kamurochō.

  • Explore communities plagued by inequality, in a land bracing for the end of the samurai era. Reference the in-game glossary to learn more about the historical accuracy of the people, places and events featured.
  • It wouldn’t be a Yakuza/Like a Dragon title without minigames, so take a moment or two away from the main quest to test yourself in the fighting arena, go fishing, perform karaoke, take part in drinking games or gamble with your hard-earned money. (Infinite Wealth? That’s another game entirely.)
