Like a Dragon: Ishin! gets a combat-focused playable demo

Like a Dragon: Ishin!

Publisher Sega and developer Ryu ga Gotoku Studio have released a combat demo for Like a Dragon: Ishin! on all platforms.

The new combat-focused demo is now available over PC via Steam, on Xbox consoles via the Microsoft Store, and for PlayStation consoles over on the PlayStation Store.


It’s worth pointing out save data from this demo cannot be migrated over to the full game when it launches this month.

Here’s a rundown on Like a Dragon: Ishin!, plus the new trailer:
