Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's Hawaii will be the biggest Yakuza map to date, coming in at three times the size of Yakuza: Like a Dragon's Isezaki Ijincho and nine times the size of series mainstay Kamurocho.
A post on X/Twitter from developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio revealed the new map, which will take the series outside of Japan for the first time, will dwarf Isezaki Ijincho, which was already considered huge compared to past Yakuza locations.
The post also showed off the different districts available in the Hawaii map, officially called Honolulu City, such as Aloha Beach, the Anaconda Shopping Centre, and Chinatown. Because this is a Yakuza game, Infinite Wealth will of course also feature an area called District 5 which is home to the local mafia.

Publisher SEGA and developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio have released new information and screenshots for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth introducing the game’s substories, personality stats, and bond level.
SEGA’s excellent Yakuza series is well-known for its minigames, but Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth looks to seriously expand upon the expectations of fans with an unprecedented number of side-activities and distractions. Chief among them is the inclusion of some fairly famous Model 3 arcade games, including SEGA Bass Fishing, SpikeOut, and Virtua Fighter 3tb. These are brand new ports, and it’s the first time SpikeOut has been playable on console since an iffy Xbox spin-off almost 20 years ago.
The Yakuza (or Like a Dragon) franchise is known for being a tad wacky, but publisher Sega is bringing the weirdness to the real world by basically hosting a funeral for all the series' dead characters in Tokyo.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's roster of minigames sound just as whacky as I'd hoped.
Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has shared some new details on Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, specifically the minigames that players can indulge in. It already showcased Crazy Delivery and Dondoko Island, but there’s also Miss Match, an app that protagonist Ichiban Kasuga can use for matchmaking.
Publisher SEGA and developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio have released new information and screenshots for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth introducing the countless minigames users will be able to experience across Hawaii and Japan.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's new trailer has reignited hope among fans that Kiryu might one day find love - and with one particular person.
While Sega’s other properties, like Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio and Shinobi, were the bigger deal at The Game Awards, RGG Studio’s Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth received a new trailer. It focuses on side story content for Kazuma Kiryu, the long-running protagonist of the series and deuteragonist of the sequel. Check it out below.
RGG Studio's knack for storytelling is legendary at this point, and so we'd actually advise against watching this new video for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. This is an extended, ten-minute story trailer for the upcoming RPG, and while we think it focuses on the early hours of Ichiban's next adventure, this is exactly the kind of narrative that you'll want to experience as fresh as possible when the game comes out.
Alongside a new trailer showing what Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will sound like in English, Sega also confirmed Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name's English dub will release for free this month. The new trailer shows scenes that will be familiar to anyone who watched the Japanese trailer back in September, but it's nice to hear familiar voices connected to this new footage. The trailer also gives us a chance to hear Daniel Dae Kim's Masataka Ebina and Danny Trejo's Dwight. Here's what Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has to say about the two characters.
Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s story trailer for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth has received an English version, showcasing voice acting and localization. Daniel Dae Kim (who voiced Johnny Gat in Saints Row) will play Masataka Ebina, while the legendary Danny Trejo plays Dwight Mendez. Check out the trailer below, though beware of spoilers if you want to go in blind.
Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth is looking to start 2024 with a bang in January, and not only because the developers say it's so freaking long. As Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio had already announced, it's also packing in performances by Daniel Dae Kim (Lost, Hawaii Five-0) and Danny Trejo (Machete, Desperado) for the English version's voice over. During today's PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted, RGG brought out a new English language trailer with a first look at Kim and Trejo's roles.
