At its core, the Yakuza or Like a Dragon franchise is an emotional tale of good and virtuous men in the criminal world, but it's also all about style, spectacular boss battles, and ridiculous side missions. Many believe that series protagonist Kiryu Kazuma is one of the most well-written characters in video game history.
Before the Dragon of Dojima can pass the torch entirely to Ichiban Kasuga, he returns for one last showdown. The events of Like a Dragon Gaiden will take place between the sixth and seventh games in the franchise. Developer Ryo Ga Gotoku Studio has also stated that it will include some beloved gameplay features, such as Karaoke and Cabaret Club.

6) Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown
The Prince of Persia series was one of Ubisoft's most successful franchises in the 2000s.

Ubisoft announced the Sands of Time remake in 2020, but due to initial criticism, the game has been delayed.
The studio has now promised another title, which will be a side-scrolling platformer. The Lost Crown is scheduled to be released early next year. It will introduce a new hero as well as numerous powers. Players will also be able to use iconic mechanics such as rewinding time.
