Nagoshi Studio Reveals Japanese Crime Action Adventure Gang Of Dragon

The formula for RGG Studios’ Yakuza/Like a Dragon is well recognized and has become more accessible than ever. The games are now available on newer consoles with additional releases just a few months away as well. Earlier this fall, the Japanese game studio unveiled Yakuza Kiwami 3 and with it also comes standalone experience ‘Dark Ties’ that furthers the story of antagonist Yoshitaka Mine.

On the other hand, creator Toshihiro Nagoshi has exited Ryu Ga Gotoku a few years ago already. In 2021, Nagoshi alongside Daisuke Sato exited. Nagoshi went on to start a new venture over at NetEase Games with self-named venture ‘Nagoshi Studio’. In a later report in 2022, Nagoshi explained his new IP can be framed along the same lines as a Quentin Tarantino film for the scope of the title.

At The Game Awards, Nagoshi Studio was present to reveal the new IP – Gang of Dragon. You can watch the announcement trailer in the video below:

“Players will engage in visceral hand-to-hand combat showcasing Shin’s overwhelming physical strength, while also wielding swords, firearms, and unleashing a wide range of combat techniques,” the press release shares. “Additionally, players can race through the vibrant streets of Shinjuku, experiencing exhilarating high-speed car chases. Lastly, the game’s scenario and overall direction are led by Toshihiro Nagoshi, who is widely recognized for his emotionally rich, character-driven storytelling.”

Nagoshi in a statement added: “This project depicts, with unwavering honesty, the lives of outlaws who inhabit the real streets of Kabukicho. Through gameplay, my team and I are committed to delivering a powerful new human drama born from this world. What is shown in this teaser represents only a small part of what G.O.D. truly has in store, and we look forward to sharing much more with you in the future.”
