The creator of the series Yakuza, Toshihiro Nagoshi, opened the hypothesis that Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio can develop something completely detached from its flagship series. In fact, during an interview with Game Informer, he pointed out how the software house has only focused on the Yakuza series and would like her to try her hand at something completely new. He has declared:
Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio team members only worked on the Yakuza series. But I think it would be a waste if such a talented team couldn't fully exploit the potential of their skills.
It could be a challenge to yourself, to create something of a completely different genre and with a different style. We don't know yet, but it is something we are considering for the growth of our entire team.
In fact, the team has already experienced something slightly different. He did it with Judgment, a spin-off of Yakuza starring a former lawyer, which nevertheless shared many game mechanics with the main series, as well as with Yakuza: Like a Dragon, given the gender change. Toshihiro Nagoshi's reflections suggest that he would like the team to experience something completely original, perhaps completely changing the setting and narrative style. We just have to wait for more information on the next projects of the Japanese development studio.
Recall that the latest effort of the software house is Yakuza: Like a Dragon, the seventh chapter of the franchise, which features a completely new protagonist and supporting actors and a renewed gameplay; in fact Yakuza went from being an action to a turn-based jrpg.
