The spinoff is set to have its official release on February 21, 2023, for platforms including PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. Apart from all the things that the base game has to offer, players who pre-order the title and get their hands on the Digital Deluxe edition will be able to enjoy additional rewards and content.

The game's developer, Ryu Ga Gotoku, has made it so that those who pre-order the Digital Deluxe edition of Like a Dragon: Ishin can try the game out in early access four days ahead of launch.

Those who have already bought this edition of the game will be able to start playing the game tomorrow, February 17, 2022, when the early access period goes live at 15:00 GMT for all regions and platforms.

All Like a Dragon: Ishin pre-order bonuses

• Tsuyano Usukurenai: A sword soaked in blood
• Black Ship Cannon: A cannon taken from Western ships

It’s important to note that the pre-order bonuses are restricted to the Digital Deluxe edition of the game. Hence, those who have already purchased the Standard edition of the game will not be able to get their hands on these drops.
