The new Yakuza: Like a Dragon is almost upon us, it will be released on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X and PC on November 10th. The version for PlayStation 5 instead will arrive with a delay of 4 months, on March 2, 2021, but this is not the worst news. Although it has already been confirmed that users who purchase the title on PS4 (physical or digital version) will be able to take advantage of a free upgrade to PS5 when available, today we discover some details regarding the saves that could be essential in choosing the platform on which to play it. .
Unfortunately, in fact, Users who play the new Yakuza: Like a Dragon on PlayStation 4 will not be able in any way to transfer their saves to the improved version of PlayStation 5. This is a problem that is largely in contrast with the cross-buy nature of the title and with the choice to offer a free upgrade. The information, as you can see below, comes directly from the Twitter page of the Ryu ga Gotoku Studio.
To clarify, physical owners of Yakuza: Like a Dragon on PS4 can also use the original disc to upgrade to the PS5 version when it releases on March 2, 2021.
Save data will not be transferable between the PS4 and PS5 versions of the game.

At this point, given the incompatibility of the rescues of the two versions, those who want to play it in an improved version will necessarily have to wait for the PS5 version to be released, or buy it now for PC or Xbox Series X (unless of course you want to start over from 0 after a few months). This is already the second piece of information of this type relating to the new Sony console, as well as for the remastered version of the latest Spider-Man, and that we hope it doesn't keep coming back with more free upgrades.
