Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth: Ichiban and Kiryu in Hawaii, a sourced analysis
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth brings together Ichiban Kasuga and Kazuma Kiryu in an RPG set across Japan and Hawaii. A summary of official information and three reviews of the PS5 version; this is not a hands-on TricknFix review.
Game trailer
Two heroes, two countries
Developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and published by SEGA, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth launched on 26 January 2024 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows and Steam. It follows Ichiban Kasuga, who travels to Hawaii to find his mother, and Kazuma Kiryu, who is facing his last days. The game builds on Yakuza: Like a Dragon’s turn-based combat, now with free movement during battles, jobs that act as classes, and a host of side activities: Sujimon battles, a dating app, Crazy Taxi-inspired bike deliveries, karaoke and fishing.
What the press says
On PS5, Push Square (9/10) calls it the best Yakuza game ever made: a gripping story, improved turn-based combat, exceptional side content and Hawaii as a fantastic new location, despite another slow start and jarring voice changes between Japanese and English. GamingBolt (9/10, PS5) praises a gigantic map, expanded combat and progression systems and fantastic side stories, but notes some story contrivances and localisation errors. TheGamer (5/5, PS5) praises an incredibly emotional story and a huge amount of side content, while regretting steep level spikes that force backtracking and New Game+ locked behind a paywall at launch.
Editions and prices
Checked on 12 November 2026: the Standard Edition costs €69.99 on Steam, the PlayStation Store (PS4 and PS5 versions included) and the Xbox Store (Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC). The Deluxe Edition costs €84.99 on Steam and Xbox; on the PlayStation Store it is on sale at €21.24 instead of €84.99 until 21 November 2026 at 00:59 (Paris time), making it cheaper than the Standard Edition. The Ultimate Edition costs €109.99 on all three stores. The game is also included in PlayStation Plus Extra, and the Xbox Store shows a 20% discount for Game Pass members only: these subscription-linked prices are not listed as offers, nor is standalone DLC. Physical editions were not checked for this survey.
Who is it for?
Turn-based RPG fans and Yakuza series fans, especially those who enjoy long adventures packed with side activities. Having played Yakuza: Like a Dragon helps to get the most out of the story.
