Yakuza Creator's Promising New PS5 Game May Soon Be Sleeping with the Fishes as Funding Is Cut
Publisher NetEase has reportedly ceased funding for Toshihiro Nagoshi's promising PlayStation 5 game, Gang of Dragon. The project, a spiritual successor to the Yakuza series, is estimated to require an additional $44 million to complete. Employees were notified of the decision, and the studio may need to find a new publisher or repay NetEase to continue development independently.
