As we approach 2024, the release date of "Like Dragons 8: Endless Fortune" is getting closer and closer. Masayoshi Yokoyama, who is now the producer of the series, revealed more details about the work. Among them, the main story of "Dragon 8: Endless Fortune" has more than 72 hours of gameplay, and the game will not be added to Microsoft XGP for a short time.
Masayoshi Yokoyama said that "Like a Dragon 8" will have a very long but worthwhile game content for players to experience. At the same time, he also joked that if you don't sleep and play the main story of the game, it may take 3 to 4 days. This means that there is no sleep, no stuck, and almost no experience of the side story, so please enjoy the game little by little and don't stay up late to play.
At the same time, for the current good relationship between Sega and Microsoft, the "Like a Dragon" series has also joined XGP, so whether the new "Like a Dragon 8" will join Microsoft XGP. Masayoshi Yokoyama said that "Like a Dragon 8" has no plans to land on XGP at the moment. For the "Like a Dragon" series, the addition of XGP is to promote the game to overseas players and attract more new players. He cited the example of Baldur's Gate 3 developer Larian not adding the game to the XGP, saying that he understands Larian's decision very well, and that he believes that each game has its own goals and the right way to get it in front of the user.
"Like a Dragon 8: Endless Fortune" is scheduled to be released on January 26, 2024 on PS5 and XSX|S, PS4, Xbox One and PC.
