Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth encaptures everything great about the franchise, from its political melodrama-esque plot, decent gameplay mechanics and bonkers side missions. This is one of the best Yakuza games yet and one that returning fans should not miss.

Apart from a plot full of illogical moments, Infinite Wealth is easily the best game in the series – no other Yakuza has offered so much stuff to do. It's very interesting to see in what direction the series will move next and how much its scale will grow.

With its predecessor hitting the dizzy heights of a 9/10, Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth was going one of two ways, either resting on its laurels and delivering another great experience, or going above and beyond to provide new and innovative opportunities for mayhem. With a solid story and fantastic cast of characters supplemented by hours of side content, this is again, not only a game of the year contender, but one that is contending for best RPG ever made (Yes I said it, I mean it too).

Infinite Wealth makes you laugh, makes you thrilled and sometimes makes you cry. Sometimes you find Ichiban and the rest of the gang enjoying a Karaoke night and another time involved in a conspiracy. Some stories are fun and some others are sad. This has been the heart and soul of the Yakuza series for almost 2 decades, and Infinite Wealth takes it to the next level.

The biggest Yakuza game to date, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth certainly doesn’t disappoint. While its story is somewhat hampered by frequent diversions to introduce new mechanics or side-content, there’s still plenty to keep you gripped. And while we have to admit that we enjoy the combat more when it’s action-based, the turn-based system here is entertaining. In any case, Infinite Wealth delivers exactly what you’d expect by now: a lengthy story full of surprising twists and turns that manage to elicit a wide range of emotions, and a ridiculous volume of side content that will keep you playing long after the credits have rolled – or simply delay that from happening.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is a product that proves how special video games can be when they're trying to be just that: gaming. While some studios are busier turning their releases into virtual storefronts and others are running unsustainable budgets in hopes of finally getting Hollywood approval, RGG Studios simply sought to pamper their fans by making the most of the possibilities in front of them.

The game builds on what Yakuza: Like a Dragon laid the foundation for, with a host of improvements and a much larger game. A proper send off for Kiryu and a new beginning for Kasuga.

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is, along with Lost Judgment, one of RGG's most ambitious titles. The union of the two dragons brings a mature plot, full of intrigue, with fun and exciting moments, but also a strong criticism of our society.

Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth is an overall fantastic entry in the franchise. Stuffed to the gills with content, there isn't a more fully packaged RPG on the market. The plot is charming and heartfelt, the characters are lovable, and the gameplay incredibly fun. It doesn't matter if you're a longtime Kiryu fan or jumped into the franchise with Kasuga; it's everything a Like a Dragon game should be.

"Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is the best entry in the series yet, featuring expansive content and an engaging JRPG experience. The story is immersive with many twists, and Honolulu adds a unique touch as a new location. Despite some issues, like the paywall for New Game+, the game excels with its side missions, smooth combat, and rich ambiance. Playing Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name first is recommended for a fuller experience. A must-play for fans!"
