*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* might just be the most whimsical entry in the *Like a Dragon* series, but how does its scope compare to the behemoth *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth*? If you're curious about the game's length and chapter breakdown, here's everything you need to know.
How Many Chapters Are There in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*?
*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* consists of five chapters, matching the chapter count of *Like a Dragon Gaiden* but featuring less than half the chapters found in *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth*. Here's a look at the chapters and their titles:
- **Chapter 1: Shipwrecked** - You start as Goro Majima, a former Yakuza, who wakes up on Rich Island, Hawaii, with amnesia. Although he recognizes the term "Yakuza," his own identity remains a mystery.
- **Chapter 2: Heart of Darkness** - This chapter takes you to Hawaii's main island, a setting familiar from *Infinite Wealth*.
- **Chapter 3: The Old Man and the Sea**
- **Chapter 4: Treasure Island**
- **Finale: White Whale**
Unlike previous games, you won't be exploring Kamurocho in *Pirate Yakuza*, but the absence of this Tokyo district isn't felt as strongly given its frequent appearances in the series.
How Long Does it Take to Beat *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza*?
The duration to complete *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza* can vary based on your playstyle. If you focus solely on the main storyline, you're looking at around 16-20 hours to reach the end. However, if you're aiming for 100% completion, including all side-quests and optional activities, the game could take up to 40 hours to fully experience.
When Does *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* Take Place? Should You Play *Infinite Wealth* First?
*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza* is set shortly after the events of *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth* and may lay the groundwork for a potential sequel. You don't need prior knowledge of *Infinite Wealth* to enjoy *Pirate Yakuza*, as the game provides necessary background information.
However, if you're planning to play *Infinite Wealth* at some point, consider tackling it first. *Pirate Yakuza* reveals a significant plot point from *Infinite Wealth* early on, which could impact your enjoyment of the latter game.
So, there you have it: the chapters of *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza* and insights on how long it takes to beat this intriguing addition to the *Like a Dragon* series.
