🔥 Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Launches Free Demo on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC — Full Game Drops February 21

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has unveiled a free demo for Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam. The demo launched at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET / 3 PM GMT, offering fans a taste of the game’s swashbuckling new chapter in the beloved Like a Dragon series.

While the full game will release on February 21, 2024, for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, the demo is exclusive to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam — no demo for the older platforms.

Set between Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and the main series’ legacy, Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii follows Goro Majima, who awakens with amnesia and reinvents himself as a pirate in the tropical islands of Hawaii and the mysterious archipelago of Madlantis.

The demo lets players:

• Freely explore Honolulu and Madlantis, areas not accessible at the start of the full game.
• Switch between Mad Dog and Sea Dog fighting styles.
• Battle elite bounty enemies and test their skills in four naval and deck combat challenges at the Pirates’ Coliseum.
• Customize Majima with new gear and outfits.
• Enjoy side activities like karaoke, featuring three original songs.

Though not confirmed, demo progress likely won’t carry over to the full game — the experience is designed as a standalone showcase, not a full save transfer.

The game marks a major evolution in the series’ spin-off formula. With a 15–18 hour main story, it's significantly longer than the previous spin-off, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. Fans who sign up for SEGA’s email newsletter or rewards program can unlock a special outfit letting Majima wear Kiryu Kazuma’s iconic look.

A teaser from the Xbox Partner Showcase in October highlighted the game’s naval combat, drawing strong comparisons to Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, and confirmed the return of Taiga Saejima, hinting at deeper ties to the core series than initially expected.

Ready to set sail? Grab the free demo today and prepare for a wild ride across the Pacific — where yakuza legends become pirates, and legends are made all over again.
