Key Facts
- The Like a Dragon Kankon Zosai Exhibition Kiwami runs at YOKOHAMA COAST in Yokohama from November 6 to November 29, 2026.
- The exhibition's Crown area displays 100 quote cards and a wall listing more than 1,500 characters from the Like a Dragon series.
- The Stranger Than Heaven Variation Logo T-shirt sells for 5,500 yen in sizes M and L at the nationwide hands-on venues.
The exhibition revives the 20th-anniversary event held in 2025 and replaces its Funeral area with a Gift area built around year-end presents. Visitors hand a gift to a Sujimon and mash a button to recruit it, copying the Sujimon Get Chance from Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth; a successful attempt earns an original sticker, and failed attempts can be retried. The gift assortments are sold to order, with delivery scheduled for around December. The Crown area holds 100 quote cards, a corner comparing Kazuma Kiryu, Haruka Sawamura, Goro Majima and Daigo Dojima across titles, and a wall listing more than 1,500 characters. Planning documents and prototype footage from the series' development are displayed and cannot be photographed. The Stranger Than Heaven exhibit next door is free to enter without an exhibition ticket.
The entrance movie runs from the 2005 Like a Dragon to the 2025 Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and ends with a message from Takaya Kuroda, who voices Kazuma Kiryu. Masayoshi Yokoyama's message covers the birth of the first game and how a title dealing with antisocial subject matter reached release. The prototype footage near the chronology has a stronger street feel and edgier design lines than the current series, and recalls Jet Set Radio and Kurohyou: Ryu ga Gotoku Shinshou.
- Crown: a renewed adult ceremony photo spot with Kiryu and Majima at 20, Kashiwagi's costume, Majima's tokko uniform, and tattoo original art of Kiryu's Yinglong and Daigo Dojima's Fudo Myoo.
- Wedding: an AR photo app and life-size panels of characters in formal wear, with photos printable at convenience stores.
- Gift: the year-end gift selection includes Dondoko Island black garlic, and a Sujimon photo spot.
- Festival: the Tojo Clan meeting room, Shinjuku Station coin lockers, the Empty Lot, cash bundles to scatter, survival can collecting, and costumes from the stage play Like a Dragon: Kamurocho Hakkenden.
- Goods: event and Stranger Than Heaven goods, acrylic stands, T-shirts, and a tenugui towel.
- Stranger Than Heaven: the Tokyo Game Show 2026 demo with battles in 1915 Kokura, 1929 Kure, and 1943 Osaka; the shoulder buttons control the left and right hands, and a theater screens a special performance sung by Susie Day, played by Tori Kelly.
