Yakuza: Like a Dragon is launching in November 2020 in the West. It's coming to Xbox One, Windows 10, PlayStation 4, and Steam then. However, the Xbox Series X version will release on day one on the console's release date, and the PlayStation 5 version will release at a later date. A PlayStation 5 upgrade path is also being planned for the Western release and will be announced at a later date. Preorders should go live soon, but they aren't available yet.
Also revealed in today's announcement was the English voice cast of Yakuza: Like a Dragon, which features, among many talented actors, Star Trek's George Takei. Takei plays the role of Masumi Arakawa, a powerful patriarch whose dissolution of the Tojo Clan sets into motion the conflict in the game.
