The newest installment of the Like a Dragon series is one of RGG Studio\u2019s biggest titles to date, featuring a polished battle system and a massive amount of content. According to a recent interview, the creators are looking forward to players discovering and reacting to all the game elements they\u2019ve deliberately kept hidden all this time.\u00a0<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"LIKE A DRAGON: INFINITE WEALTH | OPENING MOVIE\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cdxTTyw__Gs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>On the day of Infinite Wealth\u2019s release, it was revealed that the title would be using an existing song by Japanese singer and songwriter Ringo Sheena (Ringo Shiina), contributing to the excitement. In an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.4gamer.net\/games\/599\/G059997\/20240122046\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">interview with 4gamer<\/a>, the director of Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio Yokoyama Masayoshi was asked about the unconventional decision to keep the collaboration under wraps until the day of release. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, Yokoyama surprisingly revealed that at first, he had wanted to keep the collaboration completely secret, giving only those who play the game the satisfaction of discovering it. &nbsp;This is also why the song\u2019s title was not revealed. He then added, \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of things (in the game) that we are looking forward to in the same way. Things that have us thinking, \u2018I wonder is someone going to notice this and share it on social media?\u2019\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yokoyama mentions that their studio has previously been told that they reveal too much through pre-release trailers, which is why they have purposely left \u201cquite a lot hidden\u201d for Infinite Wealth. It seems the creators are looking forward to players coming across all the surprises they have planted in the game.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/twitter.com\/Stellar_Fox\/status\/1751727408921575853?s=20\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And truly, the past few days have been full of crazy discoveries for Infinite Wealth players \u2013 including but not limited to: a reference to the \u201cCongratulations scene\u201d from the end of the Neon Genesis Evangelion anime, a reference to AKIRA\u2019s famous motorcycle slide, Persona series songs and many more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u304a\u524d\u3089\u305d\u308d\u305d\u308d\u6012\u3089\u308c\u308d\u3088\uff01<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E9%BE%8D%E3%81%8C%E5%A6%82%E3%81%8F8?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u9f8d\u304c\u5982\u304f8<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/hEMBibBdkg\">pic.twitter.com\/hEMBibBdkg<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u9e7f\u83ca (@shikagiku_) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/shikagiku_\/status\/1751523202554376652?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 28, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Post translation:<\/strong> <em>You guys are going to anger people if you keep this up!\u00a0<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u30aa\u30de\u30fc\u30b8\u30e5\u3055\u308c\u307e\u304f\u3063\u3066\u308bAKIRA\u306e\u540d\u30b7\u30fc\u30f3\u304c\u3001\u9f8d\u304c\u5982\u304f\u306b\u3082w<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E9%BE%8D%E3%81%8C%E5%A6%82%E3%81%8F8?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#\u9f8d\u304c\u5982\u304f8<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/5auHhxFdNA\">pic.twitter.com\/5auHhxFdNA<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u30b3\u30a6 (@kouext) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kouext\/status\/1751459048371986754?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 28, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>Post translation:<\/strong><em><strong> <\/strong>Like a Dragon also got the famous AKIRA scene lmao\u00a0<\/em><br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u3000&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent interview, the Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, the devs mentioned that the game has many secret things they are waiting for users to discover and react to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":55,"featured_media":26367,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-26364","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-japan-related-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
