Following the massive success of its Fallout series, a critical and commercial hit that sparked an unprecedented uptick of interest in the games, Amazon has announced that a live-action series based on Yakuza: Like a Dragon called, creatively, Like a Dragon: Yakuza will debut later this year.
Like a Dragon:Yakuza will tell an original story based on the famed game series, directed by Masaharu Take and starring Ryoma Takeuchi as lead character Kazuma Kiryu. The series will showcase "modern Japan and the dramatic stories of these intense characters ... that games in the past have not been able to explore."
