Yakuza Pirate Adventure Earns Positive Reviews

Author : Stella Feb 19,2025

Pre-release reviews for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (the Hawaii-set Yakuza spin-off) are in, and the PS5 version currently holds a Metacritic average of 79/100.

Reviewers hail it as possibly the most outlandish entry in the series, praising the return to a fast-paced, action-focused combat system reminiscent of pre-2020 titles, now augmented by thrilling naval battles. This seafaring combat adds significant depth and variety to the gameplay.

While protagonist Goro Majima receives widespread acclaim, the narrative has drawn mixed reactions, with some critics finding it less compelling than mainline Yakuza installments. Similarly, the game's environments have been criticized for a degree of repetitiveness.

Despite these shortcomings, the consensus is that Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will resonate with both veteran fans and newcomers alike, offering a fun and engaging, albeit unconventional, Yakuza experience.
