Blakeuza Gaiden: The Butler Who Erased His Name
" Turn around now, and you can go home in one piece. But if you don't... Just remember. Going down this path was your choice. " - Agent Joryu
A non-canon but official 4th entry of the Blakeuza series for Like a Dragon Gaiden.
Not much has to be said. It's just good ol' Blake Izayoi in Gaiden...
And maybe the Murasaki Family over the 'Jimas.
Majima -> Murasaki
Saejima -> Hamjima
Daigo -> Mister Expo, Murasaki Family 1st Lieutenant (Because I had no other fitting replacement to include more Murasaki Everywhere characters so it doesn't look like Daigo's part of the team...)
Powered by the Awakening of the Dragon God mod by Spurge; mod is required to run Blakeuza Gaiden.
Remastered / Version 2 is planned after the next Awakening of the Dragon God update, subject to Spurge's approval. Its release date is TBA.

Version history
Version 1:
Was never really planned, if I'll be honest. I just happened to discover Awakening of the Dragon God by Spurge and thought it was sick as fuck to see how he overhauled the combat for not just Kiryu's Agent and Ouryu/Yakuza styles, but Daigo, Majima AND Saejima's coliseum movesets to be the opposite of watered down bullshit... and especially Majima. It's nearly perfect for a moveset I would also give the Murasaki character with the amount of Y3-Y5 attacks AOTDG gives Majima.
Developed at the same time as Blakeuza Kiwami 2's 2025 Redux update, and was released on November 20th, just 2 days after the latter was released on November 18th.
And for the record, the 2-day release schedule on top of working on both simultaneously left me extremely exhausted...!
Well, before I ended up working on Blakeuza 3 at the same time I was already developing Murasaki Everywhere: Gensokyo Chronicles for PYIH... at the same time I was also working on Blakeuza 5, which was admittedly rushed but looked perfect, and released just right in time for Thanksgiving on November 24th... 4 days right after Blakeuza Gaiden.
Shit... I gotta take it easy on myself!
Version 2 - Remastered:
Remastered / Version 2 remains planned after the next Awakening of the Dragon God update, subject to Spurge's approval. No release date has been set.
