SEGA Trademarks Yakuza Wars Ahead of Tokyo Game Show 2024

Thanks to a reliable gaming news source, players know about one of the new announcements they can expect from SEGA at the Tokyo Game Show 2024. Thanks to Wario64, we know that SEGA has trademarked the title ‘Yakuza Wars’, which could be the next extensive instalment in the Like a Dragon series, a popular SEGA franchise known for its unique blend of action, drama, and humour. However, not much is known about the title. 

Excitement is brewing in the comment section as many players speculate about the potential crossover between two beloved SEGA franchises, Yakuza and Sakura Wars. The mere inclusion of the word “Wars” in the title has sparked a wave of anticipation. While there are no concrete hints of a collaboration, the possibility of a standalone game for the Like a Dragon series is equally thrilling. Also, the thought of their favourite Yakuza characters piloting mechs has players on the edge of their seats. 

Apart from that, players are speculating about the type of gameplay featured in Yakuza Wars. They wonder if it will be a turn-based system like the mainline entries or free-flow, real-time combat similar to their spinoff titles. An official announcement will reveal more details about Yakuza Wars’ gameplay, narrative, and setting. Hopefully, SEGA will provide clarification during the Tokyo Game Show 2024.

In other news, the Like a Dragon: Yakuza live-action actor recently spoke about his experience playing Kazuma Kiryu in the Amazon Prime series.
