Amazon’s live-action TV adaptation of Yakuza: Like a Dragon starts streaming in October.

Prime Video has one hit with Fallout, plus a Tomb Raider adaptation on the way, so what’s next? Get ready for six episodes of Like a Dragon: Yakuza that will be released worldwide in 3-episode sets on October 25th and November 1st.

In 1995 and 2005, spanning across two time-periods, Like a Dragon: Yakuza, an original crime-suspense-action series, follows the life, childhood friends, and repercussions of the decisions of Kazuma Kiryu, a fearsome and peerless Yakuza warrior with a strong sense of justice, duty, and humanity.
