While exploring the open world sandboxes in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, players will stumble upon short side quests called Substories. These aren’t new, but they do make up a big part of the game for those who want to immerse themselves in the world.

A key part of every game in the rebooted Like a Dragon franchise is Substories, and it feels as though there are so many in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth that the main campaign is the real side content. These are small quests or missions for players to complete that are often completely disconnected from the main story. However, while they’re separate from the narrative, they often add to the feel of the world by highlighting interesting characters and getting protagonists to complete silly, often insane tasks.

Each Substory tells players something new about the protagonist, Ichiban. He’s always willing to help and look out for the little people. From what we’ve played, this is never more present and on display than in a Substory.
