LaD: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii had a really great debut becoming the second biggest entry of the saga with 22,327 CCU (51,63% less than IW with 46,1K but 38,47% higher than erased his name with 13,7k)
Popularity of the saga is going up as latest entries (even spin-offs) are surpassing older entries.
That’s fair enough, because they’re coming out too fast for me (a person who caught the series a little later but now plays all of these when they come out). I’d say take your time and either start at Yakuza 0 (if you want an action/arcade game) or Yakuza: Like a Dragon (if you want a turn-based RPG), and you can go forward/back from there, if interested. I’d say Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is probably a game for people who are already fans, it’s just gonna be confusing and weird without a little prior context.
I loved 0, but every time I started Kiwami my eyes just glazed over. I played a few hours of Like a Dragon, but didn’t get far. Maybe some day I’ll give it another shot.
