Yakuza series designer RGG Studio has confirmed that the Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name’s English dub will arrive sometime this month as a free upgrade.
The announcement post, which arrived on X/Twitter, does not share a specific release date for the audio upgrade. RGG does tell fans to “stay tuned for more information,” and with the month already well in progress, it shouldn’t be long before we hear more.

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name launched for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on November 8, 2023. English-speaking fans have primarily enjoyed Japanese audio with subtitles so far. When the English dub releases, it will significantly feature YouTuber and voice actor Yong Yea as its star, Kazuma Kiryu, replacing Darryl Kurylo.
The Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name English dub will arrive around one month before the series continues with a new installment: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. This adventure will launch January 26, 2024, for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S and will feature the continuation of main character Ichiban Kasuga’s story. Recently, we discovered its Animal Crossing-like experience, which lets players enjoy their very own island vacation activities.
IGN’s Twenty Questions – Guess the game!
Welcome to 20 questions. Can you guess the game?
Surprisingly, The Man Who Erased His Name was originally planned to be DLC. In our review of the November release, we noted that we enjoyed its overall experience but felt it didn’t quite fulfill our appetites.
“Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name is kind of like the cup of miso soup served before Infinite Wealth’s main dish – it provides an enjoyably familiar flavor that stimulates the appetite but doesn’t really make a substantial meal in its own right,” we said at the time.
