I don’t know if anyone’s mentioned it, but on the list for Karaoke, one of the songs is “Get to the Top” by Goro Majima. This means we’ll possibly get the peak Karaoke video only available in Yakuza Dead Souls. That alone is worth the $60 base price.
To be fair, it’s kind of hard to make a new game when the acting agencies that are in charge of the actors your main character is based on are being stingy.
@@fictionfan3699 people keep saying that the whole agency thing is a non issue now because they've apparently become more lenient since changing management and rebranding. IF that's true, then the only other reason I can think of is RGG simple don't want to continue the series.
God this game is gonna be one of my favorite games in the LAD/Yakuza series. I freaking loved Majima’s gameplay in Zero and I kinda liked his gameplay in Kiwami 2 and I’m really glad they went back to beat ‘em up style. Also if you noticed Kaito, Sugiura, and Higashi were in this direct and I wish there were more Yakuza games that you can play as Majima🐍🐍🐍🐲🐲🐲.
5:15 heads up about the ship combat in AC, it's going to be waaaayyyyyy more enjoyable and fun in AC4 Black Flag. Also I'm so damn excited to play Pirate Yakuza, it's looking incredibly fun
I couldn’t have been happier that #1 this direct came out on my Birthday, but #2 this being the ideal pirate game that I always wanted on top of being a Yakuza game. I saw all that I needed to see for this game to be a day one purchase for me.
I’m honestly glad Matt Mercer is voicing Majima I’ve gotten to know him over the years through his various voice performances and I quite enjoy his compelling work of how he really goes into character. Samoa Joe the wrestler is a bonus for me also. I enjoy his voice work in Suicide Squad Kill the Justice league which is more than I can say for the rest of the game, as I didn’t even bother getting it. 😂 But yeah I’m hype for Pirate Yakuza.
@@elianwilliamsI am Praying to GOD! They don’t drown his beautiful(give or take with Majima impression) voice In autotune. LET HIM SING, EVEN IF IT SUCKS! It’s karaoke, it’s not supposed to be a talent show!
I'm so excited! The gameplay looks so fun but the story makes me a bit apprehensive. I hope it's as good as the gameplay. I missed playing as Majima. Also, shout out to the copy writers. They did a fantastic job on the script. I watched the French version and honestly I'm getting Captain Hook vibes lol. It's so good!
This is going to be the first Majima game where we get Saejima as a constant running Kyodai throughout. Finally we can see their working dynamic in a game.
Majima is definitely a killer, I'm actually shocked he hasn't been suggested to be a guest fighter in Mortal Kombat. This looks bad ass, I'm actually glad That Majima has his own game play. I can't wait til this comes out.
I heard judgment characters are gonna be in this game & I really do wish they'd just get someone else to be yagami I hate when actors prevent characters from ever appearing again.
There's a lot of misinformation regarding Takuya Kimura, it's actually not him not wanting to come back, it's his agency. They unfortunately handle how his image is shown. I've seen interviews of him and he seems to enjoy being Yagami, but the agency is so strict, they even blurred his face when he was a part of media coverage for the last game 🤦♀️
@@AGirlAndAGame Johnny & Associates shut down after sexual abuse cases arose though. Turned into a new agency. Kimura is part of Starto Entertainment now. Which is way more lenient and less restrictive compared to what Johnny was, even the CEO himself said he wanted to distance himself from the restrictive and opressive methods Johnny used. (Hell they even started hiring the same actors Johnny blacklisted.)
I pre-ordered Pirate Yakuza and I can't wait to see Majima in his new adventure after the yakuzas dissolved. Pirates of the Caribbean, One Piece, they ain't got nothing on this one.
Now I'm more excited for this game than the Kiryu one. I saw some Dynasty Warruors animations in this trailer, would be cool if they made a musou game after this.
It’s like as if DmC and assassin’s creed black flag had a baby 😭 I cannot wait for the this game bro, also since it takes place a year after infinite wealth I just wanna know if Kiryu is still alive 🙏🏻
Biggest issue for me with the newer LaD games is the mini games didn't feel optional. In Gaiden, there's a lot of padding with mandatory sub stories and mini games. With IW, the Dondoko Island took like 2 hours out of the game. Hope they change that.
When this game was revealed they confirmed this game takes place before infinite wealth. EDIT: Nevermind I'm dumb, it takes place I think 6 months after Infinite wealth.

Omg 👀
You know for a guy who’s in his 60s or at minimum pushing 60, Majima is still pretty agile for his age
It's kinda crazy, he ages like a fine wine.
@@daedelous7094 Majima simply doesn't know how to age properly lmao This man is continuously aging backwards, not that I'm complaining.
He's Asian, we don't age lol
1:46 yup that was Kaito. Sugiura and Higashi are in the game too. Seems like RGG will put Judgment characters in anything BUT new Judgment games.
To be fair, it’s kind of hard to make a new game when the acting agencies that are in charge of the actors your main character is based on are being stingy.
Maybe one day 😭

Happy belated birthday! 🎂
@@AGirlAndAGame Thank you, I really appreciate it.
I saw the Like a Dragon Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii English dub trailer I’m like “For real Matt Mercer is return?! 😃”
I’m honestly glad Matt Mercer is voicing Majima I’ve gotten to know him over the years through his various voice performances and I quite enjoy his compelling work of how he really goes into character.

Honestly, one of the biggest things I’m hyped for with this game is hearing Matt Mercer singing Get to the Top
@@elianwilliamsI am Praying to GOD! They don’t drown his beautiful(give or take with Majima impression) voice In autotune. LET HIM SING, EVEN IF IT SUCKS! It’s karaoke, it’s not supposed to be a talent show!
Dubbed majima? Ew.
it's crazy how much they put into these games when they come out, like, once a year it's crazy
For real!
I'm so excited! The gameplay looks so fun but the story makes me a bit apprehensive. I hope it's as good as the gameplay. I missed playing as Majima.
Also, shout out to the copy writers. They did a fantastic job on the script. I watched the French version and honestly I'm getting Captain Hook vibes lol. It's so good!
Majima is retelling this story so fair chance he is exageratting a "few" details😂
Oh 100% 😂
This is going to be the first Majima game where we get Saejima as a constant running Kyodai throughout. Finally we can see their working dynamic in a game.
majima was called the "Patron Saint of Pain" in Yakuza 3 by the coliseum announcer
Omg I forgot
12:19 poor guy can't catch a break 😢. Anyway this might be the first time Ichiban fights jn real time
NISHITANI ! I SAW NISHITANI ! 😮
With all this content, RGG can take my money right now 👍
Do I comprehend what's going on? No. Did I understand any gameplay? No. Do I want it all? ABSOLUTELY!
Ichiban fighting in real time? Glad he overcame his schizophrenia 😊
😂😂
I think this is the first game where Majima is the sole playable character.
It is
Majima is definitely a killer, I'm actually shocked he hasn't been suggested to be a guest fighter in Mortal Kombat. This looks bad ass, I'm actually glad That Majima has his own game play. I can't wait til this comes out.

3:47 Majima seems to have a really fertile imagination too xD

Been a fan of pirate games since Lego POTC on 360
Hope kiryu is ok
Me too
Me too 😭
Pre ordered
It's all fun and games until Yakuza 9 where we fight a floating Majima summoning his clones and giant animal.
It’s like as if DmC and assassin’s creed black flag had a baby 😭 I cannot wait for the this game bro, also since it takes place a year after infinite wealth I just wanna know if Kiryu is still alive 🙏🏻
Trailer: exists
Me:*One piece opening plays*
Yakuza May Cry
i need to finish infinite wealth before this game come out
Biggest issue for me with the newer LaD games is the mini games didn't feel optional. In Gaiden, there's a lot of padding with mandatory sub stories and mini games. With IW, the Dondoko Island took like 2 hours out of the game. Hope they change that.
I always call this game Like a Dragon 2
Assassin's Creed Black Flag: Like a Dragon Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Edition😂😂
Is this Majima’s version of going on a journey of spiritual enlightenment or he just drugged out of his damn mind😩
Please tell me I can enjoy this as my first ever Like a dragon game.... I hope I dont need to have played the previous games.
The west game devs are giving you what they want. The east devs are giving you what you want.
its real obviously....
he has asmnesia on a island of pirates he is not Kasuga
When this game was revealed they confirmed this game takes place before infinite wealth. EDIT: Nevermind I'm dumb, it takes place I think 6 months after Infinite wealth.
Uhh... No they didn't. It was always said it was set afterwards. They explicitly mention the effects of 8's ending in the trailer.
@shrpha7112 Ah Shit I just looked it up. My bad, I have no idea how I got that info wrong.
@@drew2031 It's all good just making sure you're aware is all. :)
Something tells me Majima went to Ijincho and got Ichiban’s schizophrenia,
this game more like; Like a Dragon: Blag Flag :d
