19. Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii
The Like a Dragon series' latest spin-off entry is a pirate-themed excursion starring fan favourite character Goro Majima, and why the hell not?
The story takes place after last year's Infinite Wealth and sees Majima stranded on an island with a crippling bout of amnesia, after which he becomes the leader of a pirate crew and sets off to discover some hidden treasure.
It's a wacky setup that feels perfectly in step with Like a Dragon's delightfully kooky tone, while affording players an all-too-rare opportunity to take control of the franchise's most hilariously unhinged central character.
Pirate Yakuza will also return to the traditional real-time beat 'em up gameplay style of the earlier entries into the series, while offering up a more manageably-scaled adventure compared to the gargantuan mainline releases.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii releases on February 21.
