Yakuza Developer Hints at Snoop Dogg's Role in Project Century

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, known for the Yakuza/Like a Dragon series, is teasing a potential Snoop Dogg appearance in their upcoming title, Project Century. They shared photos of Snoop wearing the game's protagonist's jacket and posed similarly to the studio director, Masayoshi Yokoyama. The playful caption "…yet," suggests a collaboration without confirmation. Fans of the franchise are speculating about the game’s timeline, connections to the Yakuza series, and the possibility of Snoop Dogg playing a character instead of an extended cameo, despite being set before his birth. Given RGG Studio's impressive development pace, many are eager for information on this new project.

While nothing is confirmed, the teasing photos imply there might be a connection, possibly resulting from a fan poll about celebrity appearances in the series. The specifics of Snoop Dogg's involvement remain uncertain, so fans will have to wait for official announcements.

Project Century is generating buzz as it marks a new direction for the Yakuza franchise, reportedly set in 1915. This timeframe indicates a significant shift from the contemporary settings that have defined the series. The game's title and key details are still under wraps, but Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio's history of rapid game development leaves fans optimistic for more news soon.
