Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name – Review

Over the years I have tried many times to get myself to play a Yakuza game from start to end, and have always failed, because I simply didn’t connect with the core gameplay loop of watching a long cutscene and then getting into a fight, with some mini-games sprinkled on the side. The series, now called Like a Dragon to match the original Japanese name, has only been growing, with multiple games coming out in a short span of time. With The Man Who Erased His Name promising a shorter story and launching day one on game pass, it felt like the perfect time to give this series a try again, and this time, I finally got a good understanding of this franchise’s formula, and even appreciated it a bit.
