SEGA has released a new trailer for the upcoming RPG remake Like a Dragon: Ishin! showcasing the Trooper Card gameplay mechanic to feature in the game. The trooper cards include “Time is Fleeting” which slows enemies down, “Essence of healing”, which recovers health, ”Essence of Incendiary bombs”, which lets players throw bombs at the enemy, and more. Like a Dragon: Ishin! will launch on February 21, 2023 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store. In Like a Dragon: Ishin, players will “take up the sword of Sakamoto Ryoma and venture to Kyoto to find your father’s killer, clear yourself of a framed murder, and restore your honor.”
