All SEGA games from the Yakuza / Like a Dragon saga

The saga formerly known as Yakuza which became Like a Dragon, also in the West, is a true ode to the titles of SEGA. Each part of the adventures of Kazuma Kiryu and, more recently, Ichiban Kazuga, allows us to revive some classics from the Japanese developer in arcades and other parts of cities where the stories take place.

In this guide, the idea is to capture up to the latest installment of the IP, which title can be enjoyed from your Xbox without having to leave the main game. With SEGA’s already-seen idea of releasing new classic games, it never hurts to get back to basics, even if it’s for a while.

SEGA everywhere

Yakuza 0

In the prequel to the first opus released on the market, we will have the following games:

Space Harrier (1985)
Fantasy Zone (1986)
Out Run (1986)
Super Hang-On (1987)

Yakuza Kiwami

Here the offer was much more limited and will only be available Print Club (this photo booth) and the card game MesuKing: Beauties of combat bugs.

Yakuza Kiwami 2

In the sequel to the original Yakuza, SEGA bet big by allowing us to play the second installment of Virtua Fighter.

Yakuza 3

In this episode, Boxcelios only incorporated a title created solely for Yakuza without having an original arcade title.

Yakuza 4

One of the most criticized installments of the IP, it featured Boxcelios and a sequel, Boxcelios 2.

Yakuza 5

The fifth numbered installment of Yakuza brings Virtua Fighter 2 back to Print Club and incorporates Taiko no Tatsujin and Gunrhein, a more than interesting and exclusive attack and territorial defense game for the title.
