Yakuza, also known as Ryu ga Gotoku, is a series created by Toshihiro Nagoshi and SEGA, beginning in 2005 with Yakuza, and ending series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu's journey with Yakuza 6 in 2016. Yakuza: Like a Dragon, the eighth main release in the franchise is set to start a new series protagonist, Ichiban Kasuga, who debuted in Yakuza Online.
Yakuza: Like a Dragon features turn-based RPG type combat instead of the real-time beat 'em up mechanics of previous games, with a four-person battle team. Sega have said that they wanted to try a different style of gameplay, but that if it is badly received, they will return to real-time combat for future games.
