Yakuza: Like A Dragon launches with an English dub in November

Over the last five years, there has been a huge boom in popularity for the Yakuza series, putting the franchise in a healthy position in the western market. As a result, SEGA has invested extra money into the latest game in the series, Yakuza: Like A Dragon, bringing the first English dub option to the franchise in 15 years. 

Yakuza: Like A Dragon previously released in Japan back in January for the PlayStation 4. However, the game will be making its way to the rest of the world, complete with an English dub in November, just in time for the release of next-gen consoles. This week, a new trailer for the game dropped, showing off all the combat classes available:

As we can hear in the trailer, this also gives us a small feel for the English voice acting. Yakuza: Like A Dragon also features 20 different ‘Jobs', each with their own unique finishing moves for combat, as well as other abilities.

Yakuza: Like A Dragon is releasing outside of Japan on the 13th of November for PC, Xbox One and PS4. The game will then be made available on Xbox Series X at launch, with a PS5 release date set to be announced later on.

KitGuru Says: Yakuza: Like A Dragon is very different to other games in the series, with completely new gameplay systems and combat, shifting it from an action game to a turn-based RPG. Are any of you planning on picking this one up later this year?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
