Sega’s Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, developer of theLike A Dragon / Yakuzafranchise, has given the smallest of morsels in regards to what it’s working on next.
As reported byVGC, the developer recently held the ‘Essence of Fandom’ panel at Anime Expo in Los Angeles. Fans in attendance have since said that during the panel, it was said that they’ll “be surprised” by what’s in store from RGG Studio for its next title.
“We can’t tell you what kind of game it is but I will tell you… you will be surprised,” reads the quote as posted byTheYakuzaGuy on X / Twitter.

We can employ a bit of analysis to try and work out what Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s next game could be.Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealthlaunched earlier this year, meaning the next mainline entry in the series is likely a ways off yet. It’s perhaps more likely that the next game could be a spin-off or side story, then, as we saw last year withLike A Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name,which filled in protagonist Kazuma Kiryu’s story between the events ofYakuza 6: The Song of LifeandYakuza: Like A Dragon.
RGG also handles developmental duties on other Sega properties, having also worked onSuper Monkey Ball Banana RumbleandVirtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown.However, given the panel was strictly related to theLike A Dragonseries, it’s most likely the studio’s next game falls within that franchise.
With that in mind, we could see a spin-off game starring one of the series' popular side characters, or potentially a third entry in theJudgmentseries which takes place in the same continuity asLike A Dragon.Hopefully we won’t have to wait long for more details, as RGG Studio is notable for having a relatively swift and efficient development schedule.
