In Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (also known as Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii), recruiting crew members is key to your pirate adventure. This guide focuses on acquiring Kraken-Chan and recruiting Surfer Jay, a valuable addition to Captain Majima's Goro Pirates.

Surfer Jay in Pirate Yakuza

Surfer Jay, located in Honolulu, boasts superior base stats compared to earlier recruits. However, his recruitment involves a unique quest. While the order doesn't matter, acquiring Kraken-Chan in Madlantis first simplifies the process.

In Madlantis, find the UFO Catcher game in the tent opposite the golf range. The goal is to win the blue Kraken-Chan plush. Note that Kraken-Chan isn't always available; if not, ask the attendant to change the prizes.

Winning Kraken-Chan may require multiple attempts and sufficient funds. Strategically use the claw to nudge the plush into the collection slot. Once obtained, return to Honolulu.

Locate Surfer Jay at Tropical Coco in the Anaconda Shopping Center (use the mini-map to find the recruit symbol if needed). He'll reveal his relationship woes. Present him with Kraken-Chan to win him over and add him to your crew. While he doesn't offer unique perks as First Mate or Boarding Squad Leader, he's a valuable addition for completionists.

This completes the recruitment of Surfer Jay. Enjoy your expanded crew in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
