Like a Dragon: Ishin revealed and coming out in February

During the State of Play, Sega revealed that Yakuza Like A Dragon will no longer be the only game to have that subtitle, as Like A Dragon: Inshin! was announced and is coming to PlayStation, Xbox and PC on February 23rd. Check out the games announcement trailer below.

Like a Dragon: Ishin is an action-adventure historical thriller set uniquely in 1860s Kyo, a fictionalized version of Kyoto. While other games tell earlier stories in Japanese history, Ishin lets you experience the story of how the iconic samurai era vanished. The games hero, Sakamoto Ryoma, is a true historical figure largely credited with overthrowing the shogunate and taking Japan into a radical reformation.

Like a Dragon: Ishin brings in familiar faces to tell this epic historical tale. Fans will recognize our protagonist as Kazuma Kiryu from earlier entries in the franchise. In Ishin, Kiryu is cast as Sakamoto Ryoma and brings the rest of his crew along too. Goro Majima and other Yakuza celebrities join Ryoma as friends and foes in this fictional world that trades the flashy streets of Tokyo for the chaotic bustle of 1860s Kyo.

More details about the game are coming tonight, when the Ryu-Ga-Gotaku TGS Stream takes place, details on that here. For now though, we have to wait, but you can always rewatch that trailer again.
