Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is a 2024 role-playing video game developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and published by Sega. The ninth main installment in the Like a Dragon series, Infinite Wealth centers around Ichiban Kasuga, the protagonist of Yakuza: Like a Dragon (2020), and Kazuma Kiryu, the previous main protagonist of the series, as both of them are trying to find Kasuga's mother in Hawaii. It is the first game in the series to have settings outside Japan, allowing the player to explore areas of both the United States and Japan at different points in the game.

Runs well on modern hardware.

This is game is fanstatic, but gave the biggest problem What good: 1. Now you can walk around to adjust postition in battle(Like in Neptunia series) 2. The story already better, even at the start of the game, there are not much abundant scene like at previous game 3. The job system get better, I remember job are taking too long to level up just to found out I used the worst job ever(I am talking about using katana for my Ichiban) 4. The side content is hillarious and good, but not better than previous one(Yakuza 7) 5. Kiryu's Life link and bucket list really bring back memories of playthrough the series; can't lie, this is the main sell point of this game. What bad about this game is pretty much can covered by the good part of the game, and only problem for me is... As completionist, I cant 100% this game without DLC. And no, I am not gonna throw money for DLC that far more expensive than buying another entries of Yakuza series. Extra: I have one regret when playing this game, I was too focus to complete achievement, that not explore map much. There are so may good place you can get in or at. Like castle of homeless at Yokohama. I never tought to get into that building till the last chapter, found out so many thing i miss in this game. I am not even visit the most south restaurant at hawai.
I have a combined total of 584 hours in the yakuza series and I still have no idea how to play mahjong Solid improvement over the previous iteration. RPG style works and its here to stay it seems. Saeko is still a bad person and my manchild deserves better. That girls no good for you son. game crashed a fair few times which I guess is just the norm now since 7. Could be my specs. Could be a memory leak. I really dont know. Story complaint regarding Kiryu (Spoiler) [spoiler] Look I dont know if RGG just wants to milk Kiryu for another game (they do) but this is insane. Real bold choice to not once but twice fake out a meeting between Kiryu and his adopted daughter of the entire game seriees. Not to mention that the first fakeout is unlocked in the same chapter as you are forced by the story too have this lengthy and relatively emotional reunion with the now grown girl who was a one off side character in a previous game. It was cute it was sweet. But hitting that directly after getting the Haruka fake out took alot of the punch out of it. Then you have the four shine stuff which I mean. I honestly forgot about four shine after all this time. That said Kiryu is still gods strongest autist and does not behave much differently here. All the self sacrificing and preaching we have come to know and love. But look, Its time to put the old boy down RGG. Either let him die or let him ride off into the sunset surrounded by his loved ones. Regardless of what ending it ends up the Autist of Dojima deserves a real and true final ending for once. Its something that needs to happen if this series wants to continue with Ichiban or really continue at all. Hopefully the next game in the series will finally bring that. [/spoiler]
With all my love for the serie this one's Story is so bad unfortunately but the gameplay was good and fun
