The debut game from Nagoshi Studio, founded by Yakuza series creator Toshihiro Nagoshi, has been revealed as Gang of Dragon. Nagoshi established his new studio under NetEase in 2022, following his departure from Ryu Ga Gotoku in 2021. The initial trailer offers a compelling glimpse into the game's world, immediately evoking the familiar atmosphere of the Yakuza franchise.
The trailer depicts a man in formal attire caught in a dangerous encounter on the streets of Japan, before a confrontation escalates in a bar. The protagonist skillfully fends off several attackers, ultimately emerging unscathed. The visual narrative culminates with a reveal of a street scene strongly inspired by Kabukicho, a location central to the Yakuza series' identity.
Despite its uncanny resemblance to Nagoshi's previous work, including its setting and narrative tone, Gang of Dragon is a new IP from Nagoshi Studio. Fans will be keen to see how Nagoshi evolves his signature style in this fresh offering. Details regarding release dates and supported platforms are yet to be announced.
