Game Description
Yakuza: Like a Dragon, also known as Ryū ga Gotoku 7, takes the series in a fresh direction with turn-based combat and a new hero, Ichiban Kasuga. Set in the sprawling *Isezaki Ijincho* district of Yokohama, this game drops you into a vibrant world full of odd jobs, fierce battles, and quirky characters. If you thought Yakuza was all about brawling on Tokyo’s streets, think again. This one flips the script, and honestly, it’s a different kind of fun.
What’s Different This Time?
Forget real-time fights and get ready for a classic RPG style. The switch to turn-based combat is a surprise but works better than you might think. The protagonist changes too—no more Kiryu Kazuma here. Ichiban Kasuga brings a new vibe as a former yakuza with big dreams and even bigger problems. It’s a story about loyalty, setbacks, and finding your way after prison.
