The holiday break is behind us, so let's dive back into some exciting gaming news! While we eagerly anticipate Nintendo Switch 2 updates, today's spotlight shines on a fan-favorite: the Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth sequel, Like a Dragon: Pirate of the Caribbean (working title). Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio recently unveiled new gameplay footage, offering a glimpse into the game's features.
The showcased video highlighted extensive ship customization, open-world ocean exploration, thrilling naval battles, engaging mini-games, and diverse explorable locations. Goro Majima will boast two distinct combat styles: a nimble, speed-oriented approach and a more tactical style utilizing short swords and pirate weaponry.
Players can assemble a unique crew of allies, each contributing to combat effectiveness, exploration efforts, and treasure hunting expeditions. The gameplay promises the discovery of hidden islands and engaging original side quests.
A significant announcement concluded the presentation: the highly anticipated "New Game+" mode will be a free post-launch addition via a patch. This decision marks a positive shift from the previous title, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, where this mode was exclusive to the premium edition, drawing considerable criticism from SEGA. This is excellent news for players, with the official release date only about six weeks away.
