During the Essence of Fandom event at Anime Expo, the company teased what they are working on next.
According to several fans in attendance, the studio said “We can’t tell you what kind of game it is, but I will tell you, you’ll be surprised.”
Fans later clarified that the team seemed to be referring to the next Like A Dragon title, rather than another franchise.

WHAT IS RGG COOKING.
The latest entry in the Like A Dragon franchise, Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth, was released earlier this year to widespread acclaim.
While previously largely action games, when the series transitioned from the Yakuza name in the West to the Like A Dragon name, the games become more akin to turn-based RPGs.
A live-action version of Like a Dragon: Yazkua is set to come to Amazon Prime Video.
The live-action series will consist of six episodes, with the first three releasing on October 25 and the final three releasing on November 1.
The show, which is produced in Japan, will be available in its original Japanese language with subtitles, or with a dubbed voiceover.
It will take place over two time periods – 1995 and 2005 – and follows “the life, childhood friends and the repercussions of the decisions of a fearsome and peerless Yakuza warrior with a strong sense of justice, duty, and humanity”.
The show is directed by Masaharu Take (100 Yen Love) and Kengo Takimoto (Kamen Teacher), and will star Ryoma Takeuchi (Kamen Rider Drive) as Kiryu Kazuma.
