Ryu Ga Gotoku and SEGA are keeing the long-running Like a Dragon series of games going strong with the release of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth in January.

Coming back from Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Ichiban Kasuga is back on the scene – albeit in Hawaii. No need to worry, though; both Kazuma Kiryu and Japan also make an appearance as well.

Gameplay features a turn-based combat system that has players choosing from a number of different “Jobs” (think classes), while Summons can be called in via the “Poundmates” system. True to series form, there’ll be plenty of things to do – expect karaoke, darts, and the Crazy Delivery food delivery system. There’s even the island management sim Happy Resort Dondoko – just the thing to shake off the winter blues.
