Majima’s return

Although it was somewhat predictable, now Masayoshi Yokoyama, designer of Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios, has confirmed that Majima return in Like a Dragon 8. Of course, he also wanted to clarify that not be one of the main characters in this adventure, so we should not expect to be able to control it, since its role in the story has again been reduced to that of a secondary. Of course, beyond this, no more details have been given about what we can expect from him on this occasion.
