King of Yakuza. 

(Exposed a dent) jk pimp. 

I wonder what's next in the pipeline for Like a Dragon. 

Would love:

Yakuza 3 Kiwami (probs not going to happen)
Judge Eyes 3 (Located in Hawaii) - Wouldn't mind a crossover with Yagami and Ichiban!!
Dead Souls? Is this the last Yakuza game to not get localized? 
Like a Dragon 9 
Another spinoff

Crazy how within a year or a little more they have managed to release all three of their projects and now we have nothing left  

Can't wait to see what's in store for RGG! 

It would be cool to see Kenzan get the remake treatment like Ishin did, it is actually the only one not localized, but I don't know if Ishin remake had the sales to justify it, sales seemed tepid to me, with only like 67k first week in Japan, 85k by the 4th week in Japan, and an unknown number of western sales (Steam Spy has it in the 100-200k range, and on Xbox the day one Gamepass release will have cannibalized some sales, so unless western sales on PS4 and 5 were amazing, I doubt Sega was all that pleased with it's performance). 

Dead Souls was released outside of Japan 9 months later, it just flopped with the lowest reviews in the series by far (64 meta when the rest are high 70's or above) and fairly tepid sales, so I doubt they will give it a modern remaster or remake.

I would love to see Kiwami 3 because 3 badly needs the Kiwami treatment, it's really showing it's age. Papa Kiryu deserves a proper remake treatment. 

Judgment 3 seems like a no-brainer to currently be the next game in development at RGG Studio (they supposedly have one more game releasing in 2024 with no games currently announced). Before, back in 2021 or early 2022 we had heard they were considering cancelling Judgment 3 due to a conflict with Yagami's actor's talent agency over PC releases for the franchise, the agency was worried that PC modders would ruin the actor's image with nude mods and such, but Sega and the talent agency resolved that dispute and Judgment 1 and 2 both released on PC in September 2022, so Judgment 3 should be coming since Lost Judgment sold well.
