What is the release date for Yakuza: Like A Dragon?

Yakuza: Like A Dragon was released in Japan this past January and was met with critical acclaim for taking the Yakuza series into a new direction while still remaining true to its roots. Like a Dragon, the eighth mainline entry in the Yakuza series, introduces a new protagonist to the story and changes combat from a beat-em-up action style to a more tactical turn-based system. And while Sega had originally announced a release date of November 13, there’s good news for eager fans.

Sega said in a tweet that Yakuza: Like A Dragon will be releasing in the West on November 10, three days earlier than its originally announced date, in order to make it a launch title for the Xbox Series X and S. On release, the game will be available on the Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam and the Microsoft Store.

As far as the PlayStation 5 version of the game is concerned, it will be released on March 2, 2021. Players who own the game on the PlayStation 4 will be getting a free upgrade to the PS5 version. Similarly, the game will also be supporting Smart Delivery on the Xbox Series X/S, meaning players who own the game on the Xbox One will get a free upgrade to the Xbox Series X/S version.
