Yakuza: Like A Dragon Is In Roblox And Seeing Kiryu Like This Weirds Me Out

Sure, we’ve gotten a bunch of realistic depictions of Yakuza: Like a Dragon’s Kabukicho-inspired setting of Kamurocho throughout the series. Almost every Yakuza game will take you to Kamurocho in some form. But have you ever felt the need to explore it from a new perspective? Have you ever felt like, you know what, Kamurocho is cool, but I wish I could wander through the city in Roblox? Well, if you have, you’re in luck.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios chose to surprise players today with a new Roblox game inspired by the series set in the city. Yakuza Blocks: Like a Dragon is an officially licensed multiplayer experience inside Roblox that recreates Tenkaichi Street inside Kamurocho within the game’s engine. As you explore, you might find yourself embroiled in street fights, using a range of fighting styles and leveling up your power as you fight. Experience earned in fights can be distributed between Mind, Technique, and Body, and there are also minigames based on the series’ many secondary experiences available. The fights themselves take advantage of the series’ signature Heat Action mechanics, too.

A licensed Like a Dragon game. Explore Kamurocho, fight your way up, and rise to the top with your crew 👊

The game is developed by experienced Roblox developer GeekOut, which plans to expand it based on feedback and activity. Considering the game also offers microtransactions including costumes for Kiryu and other characters in the unnerving style all Roblox characters appear to embody, strong sales of those skins will likely also be a factor on future development.
