Like a Dragon Survey Asks About Cameos from Keanu Reeves, The Rock, and Many More

As a die-hard fan of the Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s masterpieces, I’ve been on a rollercoaster ride these past few years! From the gripping tales of Like a Dragon: Ishin and Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, to the quirky fun of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and the nostalgic charm of Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, each new release has been a delightful surprise.


Over the past couple of years, the team at Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has been quite productive. They released remakes like “Like a Dragon: Ishin” and “Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name” in 2023, followed by “Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth” and “Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble” this year. You might think they’d be winding down after four games in two years, but surprisingly, they’ve announced that their next game will be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show in September. Although details about this upcoming project are scarce, there’s been a buzz suggesting that some well-known voices might join the series’ voice cast with whatever is to come.

The rumor comes from a new survey that publisher Sega has been sending out to fans. One Reddit user posted the survey they’d received to the Gaming Leaks and Rumors subreddit. It asks about various Sega games, including the Like a Dragon series. Then, fans are asked to “rate a bunch of celebrities and if they make an impact on your interest in a game.” The list of celebrities includes actors, athletes, and musicians, so it’s impossible to glean what type of role this might be asking about. Here’s the full list of names on the survey:

  • Aidan Gallagher
  • Jack Black
  • Hiroyuki Sananda
  • Lionel Messi
  • Xavier Messi
  • Han Azaria
  • Danny Trejo
  • Minoru Iwasaki
  • Rami Malek
  • Simone Biles
  • Dr. Dre
  • Frank Montana
  • Robert Pattison
  • Lady Gaga
  • Matthew Mercer
  • Shohei Ohtani
  • Keanu Reeves
  • Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
  • Snoop Dogg
  • Ice Cube
  • Vin Diesel
  • LeBron James
  • David Hayter
  • Seth Rogen
  • Kit Harington
  • Mark Hamill
  • Eminem
  • Ozzy Osbourne
  • Billie Eilish

Of course, veteran fans of the franchise know that RGG hasn’t shied away from bringing in big names in the past. Several pro wrestlers from New Japan Pro Wrestling popped up in side stories in Yakuza 6 and Yakuza Kiwami 2. AEW star Kenny Omega was in Like a Dragon: Ishin. And the biggest inclusion was Danny Trejo in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. The veteran Hollywood actor lent his likeness and voice to the character Dwight, one of the main antagonists in Infinite Wealth. Hopefully, we get a further tease of which celebrities are coming to Like a Dragon at the Tokyo Game Show next month.

The TGS event starts from September 26th until the 29th. As for when Rebel Game Gang (RGG) will perform, it’s yet to be announced. However, they might disclose more information in the upcoming days. Meanwhile, you can already get your hands on Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC gaming platforms.
