, a series about a family of ninjas who used to work for the government and are descended from Hattori Hanzo, a legendary shinobi.

The Like a Dragon: Yakuza Prime Video series will span two time periods–1995 and 2005–and will follow not only Kazuma Kiryu but also his childhood friends and the repercussions of his decisions. Like the games, the show is aiming to balance intense action scenes with drama, and will be set in the fictional Kamurocho district, which has been the main stomping ground of the series since it began in the early 2000s.

“Like a Dragon: Yakuza showcases modern Japan and the dramatic stories of these intense characters, such as the legendary Kazuma Kiryu, that games in the past have not been able to explore,” the official plot synopsis for the series reads.
