SEGA
If the show itself will open its doors on Thursday September 21 and close on Sunday the 24th, Sega Japan will get a head start by broadcasting its RGG Summit from Wednesday September 20 at 5 a.m. on Youtube. This will involve taking stock of the spin off Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name a few weeks before its release in November but also and above all finding out more about Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, the 8th part of the main saga which is expected to be released in early 2024 worldwide.

Entitled RGG Like a Dragon Direct, it will be broadcast on the channels Youtube And Twitch from the editor at 6 a.m.
