With the recent release of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth now behind us, the anticipation surrounding the next project from developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio is escalating. Speculation about their upcoming title was fueled by a trademark registration for a project named Yakuza Wars, discovered by Twitter user @Wario64 in Japan. This name references the series that was formerly known in the West as Yakuza, hinting at exciting new developments within the franchise.

While the trademark details provide little insight into the nature of Yakuza Wars, the title suggests various possibilities, from tactics-based gameplay to a style reminiscent of Dynasty Warriors. In an intriguing update from last month, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio implied that fans can expect a surprise with this next game. It is set to be unveiled at the Tokyo Game Show in September.

Additionally, later in the year, on October 24, fans can look forward to the premiere of Like a Dragon: Yakuza on Amazon Prime.
