Like a Dragon Gaiden: Challenge to the Informant Mission…

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name offers a fresh approach to the Yakuza series' well-known substory content. Substories are optional side quests that can be pursued as the player explores the game's real-world inspired urban settings. Previously, most substories in Yakuza games were initiated by engaging with city NPCs or unlocked after meeting specific requirements.

Like a Dragon Gaiden instead integrates these substories into a new game progression system called the Akame Network. The Akame Network acts as a hub for managing the player's progress in both Stroll n’ Patrol city missions and special requests directly from Akame. Akame is a self-proclaimed "jack-of-all-trades" who maintains an information network fostered primarily through her relationships with the local homeless.

Akame Network missions are easily identifiable on the city map and minimap by a white exclamation mark. The missions typically require the player to perform tasks such as delivering requested items to NPCs, recovering lost property through the use of the Spider gadget, taking photos, or defeating groups of enemies.

Rewards for these missions generally include monetary compensation and grant points that increase the player’s Akame Network level. Advancing to higher levels enables players to access new missions and use a special currency to unlock bonuses and buy exclusive items at Akame's Hideout.
