I always thought this game looked right up my alley but I refuse to buy games with DRM like Denuvo.

A while back the main line Yakuza games showed up on GOG and I was hoping that it would eventually lead to Like A Dragon being released! I guess today is that day!

I know I will love this game. What are some of your favorite Yakuza titles?

That's great, I was going to get this on the last Steam sale, but saw Denuvo & skipped it.

EDIT: It's even on sale.

I believe Sega has removed the DRM off of some of their Yakuza games after a while on steam, so I imagine this should drop off soon too.

I sure hope so.

I can somewhat understand a company putting Denuvo in a new game until they recoup costs, I still won't buy it until then, but I can understand the logic.

Having said that, I feel it should be a priority to remove it once they have got their money back.

Like a dragon is several years old by now and they have games even older that still have denuvo...

Yep! I had the same reaction.

I was so close to buying it during the last sale and then realized it had Denuvo and noped outta that sale real quick.

I don't know why Sega is so hellbent on putting Denuvo in so many of their releases... and then takes FOREVER to remove it, if they ever do.

Ugh...
