Want to find the location of every Aloha Link friend or are curious about the rewards you'll get from them in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth? Then you've come to the right place.
Like a Dragon 8 features plenty of systems to help you level up Ichiban's personality traits, with Aloha Links being one of the first ones you get introduced to via the main story.
In this guide, we'll tell you all there is to know about Aloha Links, including the rewards you get for making friends and where to find them. While you're here, consider checking out how to get the Street Surfer Segway so you can explore Hawaii and find all the Aloha Links in style.
Aloha Links in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth explained
Aloha Links are special NPCs you can interact with in several ways that will grant bonuses to Ichiban's personality traits (Passion, Confidence, Charisma, Style, Intellect, and Kindness). Becoming friends withll grant a random +5 to any trait, but turning them into buddies will add an extra +10.
How to make Aloha Links friends?
While you're walking around Hawaii you'll run into NPCs with a small indicator above their heads, pressing the square button on PS4/5 or X in Xbox consoles will let you become friends with them.
There are special NPCs that have different requirements, like animals. You'll run into chickens or dogs around Hawaii. To become friends with them you need to give them food (bird food, for example).
Some shopkeepers will require you to buy stuff at their stores to become friends.
How to improve Aloha Links friendships
For the majority of friends, say hi to them again to increase the friendship level. Animals/special NPCs will require more food and the shopkeepers will need you to buy more items.
You can also save friends who are getting harassed by enemies, doing this will massively increase the friendship bar and will reward you with some Iron Chunk to craft and upgrade weapons.
Where to find Aloha Links in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
There are 200 Aloha Links friends scattered throughout Hawaii. Each section of the map has its own NPCs, however, most don't stand around the same area so you'll have to scour the designated location to find them. Not only the streets but look for them inside shopping centers, food spots, and convenience stores.
These are all the Aloha Links we could find, we'll be updating this guide as we discover more. We also added the requirements for all in case you need to do something else besides greeting.
