Yakuza: Like a Dragon release date has been pushed forward and the game will now arrive three days earlier for PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
Sega has confirmed in a press release that Yakuza: Like a Dragon will launch earlier than the announced date. Now it will release alongside the Xbox Series X on November 10 instead of the original release date of November 13. As a result, those who get the game can enjoy it on their Xbox Series X on the launch day.

In addition to announcing the release date for Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Sega has also confirmed a free upgrade for the PS4 to the PS5 version. The PS5 version won’t be available until March 2, 2021. After that, those who have owned a copy of the PS4 version will get a free upgrade to PS5. However, this applies to digital copies only. (Update: Sega has clarified that this applies to the physical version too but the save data won’t carry over from PS4 to PS5.)
Yakuza: Like a Dragon will launch at the price of $59.99 on PS5, however, if you already own a copy, then you should be able to get the free upgrade to PS5. Honestly, this pricing scheme feels a little weird consider the game will be a couple of months old by then so a full launch price doesn’t make much sense, but that is up to Sega to decide how they want to promote it.
