Coming out in November :wow:
Dub and all.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon, which came out as Yakuza 7 in Japan early this year, is getting a Western release in November. While every core game in the series since Yakuza 2 had Japanese voice acting and English subtitles for its Western release, Yakuza 7 is getting a full English dub like last year’s spin-off title Judgment. The cast is headed by George Takei, who plays yakuza patriarch Masumi Arakawa.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a departure for the series in many ways, which perhaps explains why Sega isn’t calling it a numbered entry in the West. (“Like a dragon” is a translation of Ryu ga Gotoku, the series’ Japanese title.) It features a new protagonist, Ichiban Kasuga, after Yakuza 6 marked the end of Kazuma Kiryu’s story, and the setting has been moved to Yokohama. The game also uses turn-based RPG-style combat as opposed to the other Yakuza games’ beat-em-up action.
It's coming out on PS5 probably next year.

Apparently if you get the PS4 version, you get it upgraded to the PS5 for free.

Knowing Sega they'll rerelease the whole collection on PS5. They did that with 3-5 and made Zero/Kiwami 1&2/6

No you don't. Yakuza 6 is the only one that takes place after 5.

I do because I am 75% complete with the game. I'm not about to hop on to the ps4 games with all the improvements then go back

I know the series chronology
