The latest trailer for Yakuza: Like a Dragon teases Kazuma Kiryu's past and future as a member of the yakuza

Kiryu Can't Escape His Past In Yakuza: Like A Dragon's New Trailer

Ryoma Takeuchi stars as Kazuma Kiryu, the main character in the first Yakuza games and the focal point of the show. The series will take place in two different time periods. In 1995, Kazuma and his friends, Yumi (Yumi Kawai) and Miho (Hinano Nakayama), are young and reckless enough to target an arcade owned by the Dojima crime family. They're also foolish enough to think that they'll get away with stealing more money than they've ever seen in their lives. At some point in that side of the story, Kazuma will join the yakuza.

The other side of the story takes place in 2005, with Kazuma newly released from prison and no longer a member of the yakuza. Unfortunately for Kazuma, he's never going to be entirely free of his former clan, and even his old friends aren't that eager to reconnect with him. Meanwhile, a masked figure has his own agenda for the city's rival yakuza factions.

Prime Video will release the first three episodes of Like a Dragon: Yakuza on October 24, with the remaining three episodes following weekly. The next game in the series, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, will be released on February 28, 2025.
