Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name 2023
Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is a 2023 action-adventure video game developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and published by Sega. It serves as a spin-off within the Like a Dragon series, set during the timeline of Yakuza: Like a Dragon from 2020. The game centers on Kazuma Kiryu, the series' original protagonist, who ventures into Osaka while operating under the identity of a secret agent.
This title was created to deepen the narrative surrounding Kiryu’s history between Yakuza: Like a Dragon and its follow-up, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth scheduled for 2024. The plot continues from Yakuza 6: The Song of Life and connects with events in Yakuza: Like a Dragon. Although new characters are introduced, several figures from prior Like a Dragon titles and related media make appearances as supporting roles. The spin-off also includes references to other entries in the franchise, including works such as Yakuza and Yakuza 5.
Released across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on November 9, 2023, Like a Dragon Gaiden garnered mostly favorable feedback from critics.
