"Guide: Recruit Kraken-Chan and Surfer Jay in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza"

In *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*, you step into the shoes of Goro Majima, the Captain of the Goro Pirates, navigating the seas to recruit a diverse crew. Here's how you can enlist the unique talents of Surfer Jay and acquire the coveted Kraken-Chan plush to make it happen.

How to Recruit Surfer Jay in Pirate Yakuza

Surfer Jay, a standout recruit in Honolulu, boasts higher base stats than many early-game crew members. While recruiting him is a bit more involved, it's a rewarding challenge. You'll need to sail to Madlantis first to secure the key item for his recruitment.

Once you've docked at Madlantis, head to the tent opposite the Madlantis Golf Range, a popular mini-game in *Pirate Yakuza*. Inside, you'll find the UFO Catcher Game, which may contain the blue plush known as Kraken-Chan. If Kraken-Chan isn't among the prizes, kindly ask the attendant to refresh the selection.

Winning Kraken-Chan can be as challenging as real-life claw machines, so ensure you have enough cash. The trick is to nudge the plush towards the prize slot with the claw. Once you've secured Kraken-Chan, sail back to Honolulu.

In Honolulu, head to the Tropical Coco at the Anaconda Shopping Center. Use your mini-map to spot the pirate member symbols, which will lead you to Surfer Jay lounging in a garage with his surfboard. Engage him in conversation, and he'll share his personal struggles. When the moment is right, present him with Kraken-Chan. This gesture will resolve his issues and convince him to join your crew, displaying his base stats.

While Surfer Jay doesn't offer exceptional stats or perks as a First Mate or Boarding Squad Leader, his recruitment is essential for completionists. His dialogue might not be the clearest, but with Kraken-Chan in hand, you'll successfully add him to your ranks.

That's the strategy to find Kraken-Chan and recruit Surfer Jay in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*.

*Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii* is now available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
