Like a Dragon: Ishin! launches next week on PC and consoles, but fans of the series developed by SEGA and Ryu Ga Gokotku Studio can get a taste of the game right now, thanks to a newly released demo.

The Combat Demo, which was spotted online earlier this week, is now available for download for free from the PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, and Steam worldwide.
