To promote the upcoming western release of Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Sega's Australian distribution partner Five Star Games has created what it's calling the "world's most expensive bowl of ramen."
Five Star worked with the Sydney-based ramen favorite Gumshara for this unique promo. The bowl of ramen is filled with lobster, pork, and noodles, and it carries an estimated value of $400 AUD ($282 USD).

Now Playing: Yakuza: Like a Dragon - The Quest Begins Trailer
Oh myThis special edition bowl is called the "Rags to Riches" ramen, and it's meant to symbolize Yakuza protagonist Ichiban Kasuga's story in Like a Dragon.
Specifically, each bowl was made using 15kg of lobster and pork bones, and Mori Higashida of Gumshara crafted the bowls in his kitchen. The dish also has a full lobster in it, complete with a head made to look like a dragon.

"Being given a chance to imagine such an over-the-top ramen dish has been fantastic, and I'm proud of what we've created," Higashida said in a statement. "My wife is actually a fan of the Yakuza series of videogames, so I'm familiar with the craziness of the game and hope to have captured its essence in our own way!"
