SEGA Currently Has No Plans to Bring Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth to Game Pass
Speaking with Automaton, Masayoshi Yokoyama was asked if people can expect Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will be available on Game Pass.
“Currently, there are no plans to bring Infinite Wealth to Game Pass,” Yokoyama replied.
When asked why, Yokoyama adds: “It’s related to what I mentioned earlier, but for Gaiden, I thought of Game Pass as a way to ‘give our business card to overseas players’ – in other words, allowing players who are new to the franchise to enjoy the game and get to know Kiryu. Game Pass proved to be an excellent method of inviting new users to interact with the series.”
Yokoyama was also asked how sales of Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name‘s current sales and whether they are meeting his expectations.
“In Japan, sales have been very good. The game has been very well received and as a result, we can hold more Gaiden demo events. Thank you very much,” Yokoyama replied.
“The domestic sales this time are astounding, I can really feel the popularity of the series making a comeback in Japan. Gaiden is probably our best-selling title in recent times.”
Yokoyama noted, “This doubled my expectations. To be honest, up until the release, I wasn’t very confident about Gaiden‘s sales.”
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will be released for PS5, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC (Steam, Microsoft Store) on January 26, 2024.
