Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Announced


SEGA has announced the next entry in the Like a Dragon Series titled, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii!

Featuring fan favorite character Goro Majima, the game sees our beloved one eyed mad dog as he arrives in Hawaii himself, and becomes a pirate! The game will allow players to assemble a pirate crew, explore the open sea, and partake in the series' famous real time combat.

The game is set to release February 28, 2025, on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Official Announcement:

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is a brand-new action adventure that follows Goro Majima across land and sea. One year after the events of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth™, Majima washes ashore on a deserted island amid the scattered remnants of a shipwreck. Unable to remember even his own name, Majima travels across the vast ocean in search of clues to piece together his lost identity, accompanied by a boy named Noah who saved his life. Before long, they’re caught up in a conflict between cutthroat criminals, modern-day pirates and other scoundrels over a legendary treasure.

New Adventures and Play Style
As Majima, players will assemble a one-of-a-kind crew while upgrading their ship, the “Goromaru,” battling enemy pirate ships and conquering seas and hidden islands alike. In combat, players can deliver explosive combos and aerial takedowns by dynamically switching between two fighting styles: dual-wield short swords or deploy pirate tools with the swashbuckling “Sea Dog” style or utilize speed, agility and flair to defeat enemies into submission with the infamous “Mad Dog” style.

Pre-Orders Available Now
Players can pre-order the following versions of the game starting today:

  • Standard Edition (Digital/Physical)
  • Deluxe Edition (Digital) – includes DLC customization and character packs.
  • Collector’s Edition (Physical) – includes the base game, Deluxe Edition DLC Code, and special limited merchandise including a replica of Goro Majima’s eye patch, treasure coin pin, and more. Please visit the official website for further details.
Players who pre-order Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii will receive two bonuses: the “Ichiban Pirate Crew Set” DLC that adds popular Like a Dragon character Ichiban Kasuga and his pet crawfish Nancy to Majima’s crew of “Goro Pirates,” as well as the “Ichiban Special Outfit Set” DLC that allows Majima to change into two of Ichiban Kasuga’s iconic outfits.




Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is the latest in a banner year for the franchise, which saw its most recent mainline entry, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, launch earlier this year. Fans can also look forward to the Amazon Original live-action series Like a Dragon: Yakuza when it launches on Prime Video on October 24, 2024. For players looking to get into the franchise, the Like a Dragon/Yakuza™ series starter bundles are a great way to enjoy each series’ story from the beginning.
