"Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Debuts with 79/100 Score"

Just days before its official launch, the media buzz around Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii has been electric. The PS5 version of this action-adventure game has garnered an average score of 79 out of 100 on Metacritic, signaling a warm reception among critics.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has taken a bold step with what many reviewers are calling the most whimsical spin-off in the Like a Dragon series to date. The game marks a thrilling return to the franchise's pre-2020 roots with its fast-paced, action-packed combat system. But this time, the developers have thrown in a nautical twist with ship-based battles, adding a fresh layer of excitement and variety to the gameplay experience.

The spotlight shines on protagonist Goro Majima, whose performance has been lauded by critics. However, the narrative has received mixed reviews, with some feeling it doesn't quite reach the heights of the series' mainline entries. Additionally, the game's settings have been noted for their repetitiveness, which some reviewers found disappointing.

Despite these critiques, the consensus is clear: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is poised to captivate both dedicated fans of the series and newcomers eager to explore its unique world. Whether you're drawn in by the high-seas action or the familiar face of Majima, this game promises an engaging adventure.
