Zuma giving the camera a thumbs up

In the unpredictable world of Sega's zany and dramatic Yakuza / Like a Dragon games, it's hard to predict what elements will resonate with players. For instance, the series creators were taken aback when female players found Goro Majima, the series' staple gangster with an eye patch, incredibly attractive.

Pre-order Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

Nugget's Rise to Stardom

During an interview, the developers acknowledged that Yakuza 0, particularly the character of a rooster named Nugget, exceeded their expectations in popularity. Nugget is not your ordinary rooster - he is a top-performing manager in Yakuza 0's Real Estate Royale minigame, proving to be a business tycoon in his own right.

The Undying Love for Sayama

Another surprising fandom phenomenon is the undying love for protagonist Kiryu Kazuma's old flame, Kaoru Sayama. Sayama, a police officer from Yakuza 2 and its remake, is not just a love interest for Kiryu, but also one of the few female characters to fight alongside him.
