The news that is highly anticipated by the players is finally coming. Following a long silence, RG Studios shared an event announcement. The common thought of those who follow the series closely is that Yakuza 8 is coming. Let’s see what will happen at the RGG Summit.

It looks like Yakuza 8 will be announced at the end

Sega has announced an RGG Summit event that will take place ahead of the Tokyo Game Show next week. This event is expected to reveal Yakuza 8, the expected sequel to Yakuza: Like a Dragon, which restarts the series with a new cast of characters and new combat mechanics. Like a Dragon was released on Xbox Series X/S in November 2020 and was the first game in the series to come to the next generation in this regard.

Sega’s Ryu Ga Gotoku studio went through a very turbulent process, including the departure of Toshihiro Nagoshi, the creator of the Yakuza series. The studio, which has been silent for a while, has to be very meticulous for the new game when it experiences such a turmoil. Because the game has a growing popularity in Europe. Considering all this, it is seen as only a matter of time before the official announcement for Yakuza 8 arrives.
