Sega and Prime Video have released the first trailer for the live-action Like A Dragon series.
Titled, Like a Dragon: Yakuza, an official synopsis says the series “depicts the lives of fierce yet passionate gangsters and people living in a huge entertainment district, Kamurochō, a fictional district modeled after the violent Shinjuku ward’s Kabukichō, that acts as the backdrop of the gameplay.”
The blurb continues: “Like a Dragon: Yakuza showcases modern Japan and the dramatic stories of these intense characters, such as the legendary Kazuma Kiryu, that games in the past have not been able to explore.”
The live-action series will consist of six episodes, with the first three releasing on October 25 and the final three releasing on November 1.
The show, which is produced in Japan, will be available in its original Japanese language with subtitles, or with a dubbed voiceover.
The show is directed by Masaharu Take (100 Yen Love) and Kengo Takimoto (Kamen Teacher), and will star Ryoma Takeuchi (Kamen Rider Drive) as Kiryu Kazuma.
