Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is a 2023 action-adventure video game developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio and published by Sega. It is a spin-off of the Like a Dragon series. Taking place during the events of Yakuza: Like a Dragon (2020), Like a Dragon Gaiden focuses on the series' original protagonist, Kazuma Kiryu, as he embarks on a new adventure in Osaka under the guise of a secret agent. Having faked his own death to protect his foster children, the legendary former yakuza Kazuma Kiryu now lives in the shadows, his identity erased. Bound by a pact with the secretive Daidoji faction, he operates as one of their covert agents under the codename "Joryu", carrying out assignments in exchange for anonymous support of the orphanage he holds dear. Between jobs, he seeks quiet moments of meditation, trying to leave his violent past behind. But that fragile peace cannot last. When Kiryu is tasked with providing security for a smuggling operation in Yokohama, the job turns out to be a trap, as an unidentified group of yakuza ambushes the agents. Recognized despite his hidden identity, Kiryu is dragged back into a dangerous new conflict that threatens to unravel the very secret keeping his loved ones safe.
