SEGA’s Yakuza aka Like a Dragon series has been a key part of their lineup for years and developer
RGG Studio is launching their newest title Like a Dragon: Ishin! on February 21st. With the release approaching, they just dropped the new story trailer for the game, which is a nice follow-up after their recent combat trailer.
Like a Dragon: Ishin’s new trailer, entitled ‘The Blade of Vengeance’ will explore the game’s story, sharing a glimpse at the treacherous road ahead for protagonist Sakamoto Ryoma, after being framed for the murder of his mentor. With a journey full of friends and foes, high-action combat, and more, this solemn samurai’s fight for justice challenges the course of Japan’s history.
As a bonus, for anyone interested, the collectible Steel Book edition of Like a Dragon: Ishin will be available for US-only pre-orders of the physical edition at GameStop or Best Buy. That is if anyone still gets physical copies of games these days.
