Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a fairly major departure for the cult-favorite series, featuring a new main character, location, and turn-based RPG battle system. That said, as we reported a couple months ago, the past isn’t being entirely banished – Kazuma Kiryu and other classic characters are coming back. These old favorites will returns as summons that new protagonist Ichiban Kasuga can call on during combat. Sega recently detailed what these legendary summons will bring to battle (thanks to Gematsu for the translation). You can check out a new Japanese Like a Dragon trailer, featuring a ton of gameplay, below.

　　Kazuma Kiryu’s Battle Style

　　The legendary dragon Kazuma Kiryu will change his battle style and relentlessly attack. He has a total of four battle styles. Determining what battle style he is using and acting accordingly is the key to victory, otherwise you will get hit with a powerful counter blow.

Some attacks will cause you to “faint.”Breaker Style: A powerful style that uses swinging attacks and heavy weapons.Dragon of Dojima Style: The final style. It unleashes Kiryu’s three secret techniques, which are parrying, repelling, and the Tiger Drop.Goro Majima

　　Goro Majima’s Battle Style

　　Majima uses a combination of kick and demonic flame dagger attacks in a violent flurry. He uses a variety of unpredictable attacks that include wide-range strikes and attacks that can cause paralysis. Majima attacks unpredictably and continuously with kicks and slashes. The attacks with a purple lightning effect around it may paralyze Kasuga and company.Taiga Saejima

　　Taiga Saejima’s Battle Style

　　With punches, kicks, shoulder tackles, and more, every one of Saejima’s blows is a heavy hitter and has enough power to send the opponent flying upon contact. While Saejima’s attacks are not as frequent, they packs an abnormal amount of strength. One clean hit may be enough to knock you out.Majima and Saejima’s Tag Team Attacks

　　When Majima and Saejima are both fighting together, by meeting set conditions Majima’s dagger and Saejima’s power can be combined to inflict a combination attack called “Goujin Gousatsu.”
