Yakuza: Like a Dragon hasn't even been out for a full month yet, but now an after Cyber Monday sale is dropping copies of its day-one edition to just over half their regular price. Amazon is cutting $25 off the price on both PlayStation and Xbox in the US - whichever console family you buy it on, the same disc is guaranteed to work on both last and next-gen hardware in the same family.

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a brand new entry in the series that launched the same day as the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S. It sees a new hero take the reins - Ichiban Kasuga - who's aided by a colourful array of fresh faces. That's helped in part by its switch to a party-based RPG combat system from its usual action-based gameplay. In our review, we noted how the game "impressively pulls off the switch to an RPG in style, providing an excellent combat system supported by loveable characters, and a tantalising main storyline with meaningful side quests".
Even if you want to wait to play Yakuza: Like a Dragon on PS5, you'd still do well to pick up this deal while it lasts: Sega has confirmed that the game will get a free upgrade on PS5 when it arrives in March. Just make sure that you pick up a console with a disc drive when you go to buy a PS5, otherwise having the PS4 disc won't do you much good.
