I'm sad that the Like A Dragon creator's new studio is closing, but I wish their now-cancelled debut Gang of Dragon wasn't just LAD again

Less than a year after the announcement of their first game, and only four years after the studio's creation, Gang of Dragon developers Nagoshi Studio have been dissolved by a shareholders' resolution (thanks, Gematsu.) That also means a premature end for Gang of Dragon, which was announced at last year's Game Awards with a flashy trailer featuring Like a Dragon-esque realistic visuals, combat and exploration through Kabukicho, a couple new elements like actual gunplay and car chases, as well as the star power of actor Ma Dong-seok (a.k.a. Don Lee). Following reports in March that NetEase, the studio's source of funding, would be pulling said funding in May due to ballooning costs reaching around seven billion yen, the time has sadly come for Nagoshi Studio, having not found any alternative funding sources in the time since.
