Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth review: From Yokohama to Hawaii, there's an infinite wealth of fun (and fighting) to savour in this latest instalment in the Yakuza series, writes PETER HOSKIN


PETER HOSKIN: The name of the latest release in the Like A Dragon - formerly the Yakuza - series gives you a good sense of how it feels to play.

After a prologue that (even for this Yakuza fan) may be a bit too slow and self-indulgent, Infinite Wealth takes the series outside of Japan for the first time — to sunny Hawaii, where Ichiban goes in search of his long-lost mother. This one — with its story of supernaturally powered high-schoolers struggling against the demands of teenage life by day, then nasty, leering, multi-limbed demons by night — didn’t just set the tone for Persona 5. As your characters battle, in classic turn-based fashion, up the levels of the otherworldly Tartarus complex, they’re actually travelling deeper into their own psyches.
