Looking increasingly ship-shape, Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii arrives next month on PS5 and PS4 worldwide on 21st February. SEGA has offloaded a solid gameplay overview trailer (using an impressive number of pirate puns) to hold you over in the meantime, highlighting Majima's suitably savage combat options.

The Mad Dog and Sea Dog combat styles can be employed on landlubbers and changed mid-combo for added chaos. This scribe hasn't been able to keep up with the pace of developer RGG's modern, action-orientated offerings, but at least to our eye, the decidedly silly spin-off looks like a substantial upgrade.

What do you think of Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii? Is it finally time for Majima to take his place as a protagonist, every bit the equal of Ichiban and Kiryu? Let us know in the comments section below.
