We’ve tracked down all the substories in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, including their locations and unlock requirements. As in previous Yakuza entries, there are plenty of substories to partake in, though things are a bit different this time, making them easier to locate and complete than ever.
Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth substories list
There are 52 substories in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, but there’s not as big an emphasis on these series staples as there usually is. Of those 52, around a third are main story requirements or tied to other activities. So, don’t expect a constant blitz of them to appear in each chapter. Most of them are available by Chapter 6, and only a smattering show up after that point in the game.
However, the upside is that you cannot miss a substory in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. If you’ve played the previous games in the series, you’ll remember the frustration of not finding a substory or waiting too long to complete one. Well, this time, an icon is placed on the map for almost every single substory as soon as it becomes available, and you have the entire game to finish it. You can even wait until you finish the story and enter Premium Adventure Mode to wrap them up if you want.
