All Recruitable Coliseum Fighters: Like Dragon Gaiden

Learn how to recruit every fighter in Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. Discover methods like Requests, Scouters, and beating them in the Coliseum.

There are three primary methods to recruit fighters to your team in Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. These include completing Requests via the Akame Network, interacting with Recruiter NPCs in the Castle map, and defeating specific opponents in the Coliseum.

Requests through the Akame Network can yield up to 11 recruitable characters upon completion. Recruiter NPCs, identifiable by a magnifying glass icon above their heads, are found in the Fighters’ Lounge and other areas of the Castle. Some may have prerequisites, but most will offer fighters for a fee. There are four such NPCs, each offering three or four fighters.

The final method involves defeating certain characters in the Coliseum's Tournament and Hell Rumble matches. After their defeat, these fighters may appear in the Fighters’ Lounge, where you can recruit them by speaking to them and fulfilling any requests they might have. This method accounts for eight fighters in total.
