Amazon Prime’s Like a Dragon: Yakuza Showcases New Trailer Ahead of October 24 Premiere

As a seasoned gamer with countless hours spent navigating the gritty streets of Kamurocho and Yokohama, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming Amazon Prime series, “Like a Dragon: Yakuza.” Having played through every installment of this iconic game franchise, I’ve come to know Kazuma Kiryu as an indomitable spirit, a man whose life has been intertwined with the Japanese underworld.


For enthusiasts of “Like a Dragon”, there’s always plenty to anticipate, and until now, that excitement has primarily been confined to the realm of games. However, this is about to change as Amazon Prime prepares to debut “Like a Dragon: Yakuza”. Before the limited series adaptation’s premiere, another new trailer has been revealed.
