Steam Sale

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii has reached its lowest Steam price yet, and the discount is hard to ignore. The game is now listed at $14.99 after a 75% cut from its regular $59.99 price, making it the strongest deal so far for players who have been waiting for a deeper reduction. The offer runs until June 18, and SteamDB shows that this is the lowest price the game has seen on the platform. Earlier promotions topped out at 70%, so this latest sale pushes the title into new territory for bargain hunters. A pirate story built around a very familiar face What makes the game stand out is not just the price, but also its unusual setup. Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio places Goro Majima at the center of the story, giving the classic Yakuza figure a new role after he loses his memory and becomes a pirate captain on the open sea. That premise keeps the adventure in modern times while leaning fully into the series' trademark absurdity. Instead of a serious pirate simulation, the game mixes treasure hunting, identity loss, and over-the-top character behavior into a setting designed to be chaotic from the start. Combat on land and sea The gameplay follows that same approach by blending third-person action, beat-'em-up mechanics, RPG elements, and ship battles. On land, Majima fights with swords, pistols, a grappling hook, and special moves against groups of enemies. At sea, the Goromaru becomes an important part of the experience. Players can upgrade the ship, add new weapons, and take it into real-time battles against hostile crews. The structure gives the game a wider range of action than many standard RPG adventures. It also keeps the pace moving by switching between ground combat, naval clashes, and progression systems tied to the ship and crew. Plenty to do beyond the main path The side content is also a major part of the appeal. Crew recruitment, bounty hunts, treasure hunts, karaoke, cooking, and other familiar Yakuza-style activities all add more variety to the package. That mix helps the game feel packed with content rather than built around a single mechanic. For players who enjoy strange detours and playful distractions, the structure should feel especially familiar. Strong player response, with some criticism The reaction from Steam users has been solid so far. Out of more than 9,400 user reviews, 88% are positive, suggesting that the game's strange tone and broad action loop have landed well with the audience. Critics have been a little more measured. PC Games in Germany gave the game a 7 out of 10, praising its entertaining setting, polished story, and enjoyable naval battles while pointing to weak AI, limited tactical depth, and a lack of true open-sea freedom because the water is split into separate map sections. On Metacritic, the game currently holds a Metascore of 79 and a User Score of 7.9. That split reflects a title that may not satisfy everyone, but clearly has enough style and personality to win over players who enjoy its brand of absurd adventure. A good fit for Steam Deck players For handheld users, there is another useful detail to note: the game is marked Verified on Steam Deck. That should make it a practical option for players who want to take the pirate chaos on the move. For anyone looking for a discounted action RPG with naval combat, a memorable lead character, and plenty of eccentric side activities, this Steam sale is the clearest chance yet to pick it up at a record-low price.
