*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* might just be the most whimsical entry in the *Like a Dragon* series, but how does it stack up in terms of size compared to *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth*? If you're curious about the duration it takes to complete *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* and want to know the chapters, I've got you covered.
Here’s How Many Chapters There Are in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii
*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* is structured into five chapters, matching the chapter count of *Like a Dragon Gaiden* but containing less than half the chapters found in *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth*. Here's a rundown of the chapters and their titles:
- **Chapter 1: Shipwrecked**
- **Chapter 2: Heart of Darkness**
- **Chapter 3: The Old Man and the Sea**
- **Chapter 4: Treasure Island**
- **Finale: White Whale**
Your journey begins with you embodying former Yakuza Goro Majima, who finds himself shipwrecked on Rich Island, a Hawaiian locale named after its original owner rather than its wealth. Majima starts with amnesia; he recognizes the Yakuza and understands the world around him, but his own identity remains a mystery—even when others call him by his name. The unfolding narrative will reveal whether he regains his memory.
Unlike previous games, *Pirate Yakuza* does not feature the familiar Tokyo district of Kamurocho. Instead, you explore Hawaii's main island, which you visit in Chapter 2, as seen in *Infinite Wealth*.
How Long Does it Take to Beat Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza?
As with other entries in the *Yakuza/Like a Dragon* series, *Pirate Yakuza* offers a plethora of side-quests and optional activities. Focusing solely on the main storyline, you can expect to spend between 16 to 20 hours to reach the end. Don't worry about missing out on side content; you can return to any missed activities and quests after completing the main story.
However, if you're aiming to experience everything *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza* has to offer, including all side activities and quests, you should budget around 40 hours of gameplay.
When Does Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Take Place? Should You Play Infinite Wealth First?
*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza* occurs shortly after the events of *Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth* and may set the stage for a sequel to *Infinite Wealth*. 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* in the future, consider doing so before diving into *Pirate Yakuza*. The latter game reveals a significant plot point from *Infinite Wealth* within the first few hours, which could spoil your experience.
So there you have it—the chapter breakdown and estimated completion times for *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*. Enjoy your journey through this unique adventure in the *Like a Dragon* universe.
