The arrival of Kiryu in Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is greatly surprising in many ways. While Kiryu has been the protagonist of the Yakuza series since its origin, his story was remembered to have reached its end after Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. As such, this is the reason Ichiban Kasuga was presented as the main protagonist in Yakuza: Like a Dragon, which was meant to be a soft reboot of the series. Clearly, after some years away, RGG Studio is ready to overlay Kiryu back into the Yakuza franchise in a major way with both Like a Dragon Gaiden and 2024’s Like a Dragon 8.
For presently, there’s still a ton about Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name that we don’t have any idea. RGG Studio describes the title as a “super charged RGG action-adventure” and has affirmed that it will be coming to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC at some point one year from now.
Are you excited to see that Kiryu is making a major re-visitation of the Yakuza series with Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name?
