PIRATE YAKUZA ADVENTURE AHOY!

Goro Majima, a notorious ex-yakuza, finds himself stranded on a remote Pacific island.

Soon, they become entangled in a conflict involving ruthless criminals, modern-day pirates, and other rogues over a legendary prize.

Recruit a unique crew and upgrade your ship as you navigate the open sea, forging your legacy amidst cannon fire, unexpected alliances, and great riches along the way.

When targeted by an enemy pirate vessel, engage in a heart-pounding real-time cannon battle. Maneuver swiftly to avoid incoming fire, then unleash devastating attacks to board the enemy ship and defeat the captain in intense crew vs. crew skirmishes. Rule the seas, discover hidden islands, and amass treasures like a true yakuza pirate!

KICK ARRRSS WITH CREATIVE COMBAT

With the “Mad Dog” style, utilize speed, agility, and panache to deliver precise yet powerful strikes that overwhelm your foes.
