The first game was released in late 2005, and got heavy acclaim in Japan for exploring yakuza culture with previously unseen depth and authenticity it was also a massive sales success, ensuring a localization and the release of several sequels and spin-offs. Nagoshi still staked his career on getting the game produced, and got the project off the ground after some convincing. His pitch was met with skepticism among Sega's brass, who were hesitant toward the proposed game's adult themes and its focus on organized crime they also believed that the extremely Japanese flavor of the game would make the game have less appeal outside of Japan. Like a Dragon was conceived by veteran game designer and Sega employee Toshihiro Nagoshi in the early 2000s. Featuring twisted conspiracies, gang warfare, soap opera plot twists, cool tattoos, bizarre sidequests, huge shirtless men punching each other over their ideals, and more minigames than you can shake a stick at, Like a Dragon is as much an intense, heart-pounding crime drama as it is an avenue for exploring intensely-detailed virtual districts of Japan and partaking in numerous diversions and side activities.
