Yakuza: Like A Dragon<\/strong><\/em> received a new trailer today that showed off many of its new, over-the-top gameplay elements and provided fans with a release date. The next game in the melee-focused RPG series\u00a0will be releasing on November 13th for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, with next gen versions of the game planned as well. Those versions of the game will not come at the same time, however, as Like A Dragon<\/em> is a timed exclusive<\/a> for Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n

The Yakuza<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>series, for as dramatic and serious as its story can be, has almost always been lighthearted on the combat side of things. Absurd combos and stage interactions are a staple of the crime series, and the new trailer shows that they will not be going anywhere in the next game. With the new Jobs system, players will adopt the skills of everything from break dancers and chefs, offering a bit more variety than the 4 styles from the previous games. Perhaps these jobs can explain the strange bondage attack mentioned in the ESRB rating<\/a> for Yakuza: Like A Dragon<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The game will also feature turn-based sections of gameplay, which is new to the series and only possible thanks to Like A Dragon\u2019s<\/em> protagonist. Ichiban Kazuga will be making his debut as the new main character of the Yakuza<\/em> series, with the excellent story of Kiryu coming to an end in Yakuza 6<\/em>. Fans should not worry too much about this change, though, as Kiryu is set to appear in Like A Dragon<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ichiban\u2019s story mirrors Kiryu\u2019s early days, as he is framed for a crime he did not commit and forced to serve a lengthy prison sentence before being released and seeing his clan in shambles. Kasuga does differ a good bit, though, as his goofy imagination allows him to imagine himself as an RPG character. This is not just some good fun and a neat character quirk, however, as it also allows for some logic behind the game\u2019s new turn-based encounters.<\/p>\n
