Yakuza: Like a Dragon wants to make a complete turnaround to the Yakuza saga, changing the type of gameplay from a beat’em up to a JRPG classic in turns. An absurd movement that has made fans cry out to the sky while showing some interest in knowing how the game will develop with these new features. While the game is close to launching into the Japanese market – as it arrives next week – we know new details thanks to Dualshockers
According to the translation they have made to Famitsu magazine, Yakuza: Like a Dragon will parody a Dragon Quest mechanic that has its origins in Akira Toriyama and is the fact that the Puff Puff Girls. Paying those girls, Ichiban (the protagonist) will be able to put your head between your breasts. This mechanic, surprisingly enough, appears in Dragon Quest and gets rid of censorship or an increase in the age rating for the mere fact of being something "normal" in Japanese society.
That mechanics aside, since Dualshockers have also obtained more interesting information about the title, such as Masaru Watase from Yakuza 5 will also be present in the game, or the note he has received from the magazine, a 38 out of 40.
Analysts commented that Yakuza: Like a Dragon felt like a classic JRPG at the same time as the typical game of the Yakuza saga, something fans expected to happen. Now we just have to wait for the reception of the Japanese public and their subsequent arrival in the West in 2020.
