FULL STORY
======================================================================

One week after launch, its been confirmed that Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth 
is the series fastest-selling game, after hitting one million copies sold in 
the first seven days. Whats more, players are being thanked for their support 
with free in-game items. 

Given that the series has been running since 2005, spanning 23 titles across 
the main series and spinoffs, this is quite an achievement. According to 
SteamDB figures , Infinite Wealth also has developer Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios 
highest-ever peak concurrent player count on Steam, at 46,161 concurrent 
players a couple of days after its release. In comparison, the studios 
second-highest concurrent Steam player count belongs to 2023s Like a Dragon 
Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name , which hit 13,737 three days after 
release. Its worth keeping in mind that these figures dont account for 
console players. 

With this, combined with Infinite Wealth s glowing critical reception, its 
safe to say that the studios latest role-playing game has been wildly 
successful. In a post on Twitter / X today (February 2), Ryu Ga Gotoku 
announced that players will be given a Celebratory T-Shirt Set to thank them 
for their support. Four t-shirt designs have been revealed so far, although 
it was noted that their appearance might be different in the game. The post 
also vaguely teases more, although exactly how many more isnt clear at this 
point. Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth 1 Million Units Shipped Globally

No distribution date has been given for the t-shirt set just yet, either. The 
developer added: We'll share timing and other details as soon as we can. 

In his review, TechRadar Gamings hardware editor Rhys Wood gave Infinite 
Wealth five stars out of five, and praised the games heartfelt narrative and 
engaging side content. He wrote:  Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth represents 
something of a culmination of the franchise so far, telling a gripping tale 
that can be as hilarious as it is heart-wrenching.
