Sega filed trademark for Yakuza Wars in Japan

News

Translated with AI from the Russian original.

Sega and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio may be preparing an unexpected Like a Dragon spin-off, according to a recent trademark filing.

Following the release of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, questions arose about what new project Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio would release. It seems the first hint has appeared. 

Insider Wario64 discovered that Sega filed a trademark for something called Yakuza Wars in Japan. Yakuza is the name under which the Like a Dragon franchise was known in the West until recently. The application does not provide detailed information on what the new project actually is, but it could be anything from a tactical spin-off to a Dynasty Warriors-style game.

Interestingly, back in July, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio stated that fans would likely be surprised by it. Whatever the game turns out to be, it will be unveiled at Tokyo Game Show in September 2024. 

On October 24, 2024, the Like a Dragon: Yakuza series will premiere on Amazon Prime.
