Gang of Dragon: Toshihiro Nagoshi's New Game
The creator of Yakuza reveals his new work to the world
Toshihiro Nagoshi, the Japanese game designer known for creating the Yakuza/Like a Dragon franchise, after leaving Sega, joined NetEase where he founded Nagoshi Studio. During The Game Awards 2025, his new work, Gang of Dragon, was finally unveiled with a trailer that deliberately reminds us very much of Yakuza, immersing us in the world of Japanese organized crime.
Compared to the Sega series, however, the tones are much darker and more violent, so we recommend viewing the trailer only for an adult audience. Evidently, times have changed compared to 20 years ago: today Nagoshi is free to tell us about a less sugar-coated criminality than that of Yakuza. No information has been released regarding the launch window or platforms.
