Yakuza 5 (Japanese: 龍が如く5 夢、叶えし者 Hepburn: Ryū ga Gotoku 5: Yume, Kanaeshi Mono, lit. Like a Dragon 5: Fulfiller of Dreams) is the fifth main entry in the Yakuza series. A remaster with improved resolution and frame rate was released for the PlayStation 4 on June 20, 2019 in Japan, and is scheduled for worldwide release on February 11, 2020 as part of The Yakuza Remastered Collection. The game features a new graphics engine, unlike previous games in the series that have been re-utilizing the same engine since Yakuza Kenzan!. For the first time in the series, it features five settings across Japan along with five playable main characters.

The gameplay is relatively similar to previous games in the series, with a few changes. Similar to past games, gameplay is divided into two components being Adventure Mode and Combat Mode. Adventure Mode allows players to explore different areas and play sports across the city including mini-games and retro games such as Virtua Fighter 2 and Taiko No Tatsujin. The cities will also be significantly bigger than previous games, providing more areas to explore in the game and is said to feature the greatest volume of play spots across cities in the series' history. The change between the game's Adventure Mode and Combat Mode is also said to be more seamless than previous games, which involved a transitional change when encountering enemies whilst in adventure mode. Controls for the game have also been said to have been improved "dramatically" as with the tempo of the game's combat mode.
