Fans get another look at Like a Dragon: Ishin! as well as the reveal of which characters will be appearing in the game. Announced at September 13's PlayStation State of Play, Like a Dragon: Ishin! is a remake of a 2014 spin-off game set in the Yakuza universe.

The 2014 Like a Dragon: Ishin! or Ryū ga Gotoku Ishin! as it was known in Japan never released in the West, leading to developer Ryu Ga Gotoku creating the remake.
Set to launch on February 21 2023, Like a Dragon: Ishin! offers more than just a remake of the 2014 title. It will be built on Unreal Engine 4, marking a first for Ryu Ga Gotoku.

Moreover, Like a Dragon: Ishin! is set to include more extras for those that have already played the 2014 game.
