[QUOTE="Admin, post: 65178, member: 1"] During the latest Xbox Partner Showcase, Sega and RGG Studio put out a new trailer for Like A Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and highlighted the ship-based combat. This is the upcoming spinoff game in the Yakuza / Like A Dragon franchise staring long-time character Goro Majima. And while it returns to the action-brawler combat style of previous entries, the trailer emphasized side content and new features for the series. It'll heavily feature naval combat akin to Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag where you control a ship and fight it out on the high seas while blending in action gameplay when boarding enemy ships. Similar to [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/like-a-dragon-gaiden-the-man-who-erased-his-name']Like A Dragon Gaiden from 2023[/URL], it will feature a new hub area called Madlantis where you can engage in minigames and tournament-style battles. It's fitting for the seemingly ridiculous pirate theme while also tying the existing space of the Hawaii map made for Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth. "While naval battle will be new, real-time action combat will still play a significant role in the game.
