With the tightening of the release schedule for large-scale RPGs, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find time, but the developers from the Japanese Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio do not care: the upcoming Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will be the longest game in the series.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio head Masayoshi Yokoyama in a recent interview with the publication Automaton mentioned that Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will release “infinity” on “a whole new level”.
According to Yokoyama, Infinite Wealth is much larger than Yakuza: Like a Dragon. The main story is long, the side content is plentiful, and if you try to complete everything, the game “may seem endless”.
The Dondoko Island mini-game and the Bucket List storyline are in scope for a separate release
“If you want to go through only the main story of Infinite Wealth, then it will take 3-4 days (that is, from 72 to 96 hours – approx.) of continuous play. No sleep, absences and almost no side stories.”– Yokoyama scares.
The developer advises approaching Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth like watching a drama series: two or three hours a day “to avoid possible damage to health».
Sales of Like a Dragon Gaiden developers were pleasantly surprised
Yokoyama also clarified that the team has no plans to add Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth to Game Pass, as was the case with Like a Dragon Gaiden. The game is already on sale “pretty good” and may break the record for the number of pre-orders.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is expected to release on January 26, 2024 on PC (Steam, Microsoft Store), PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and S. A special demo of the game is included with Like a Dragon Gaiden.
