To get their hands on the most powerful weapons in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, players will rely on a spunky mechanic named Julie and her Gearworks workshop. As players craft items and invest in her workshop through monetary donations, they’ll gain access to new blueprints, including those for crafting Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth’s ultimate 7-star weapons for every job. The Host job, originally introduced in Yakuza: Like a Dragon, is once again on the menu for male characters in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, allowing them to provide only the finest service to enemies through a selection of magic abilities. Players who want to get their hands on the Host’s ultimate weapon, Prince of Star Night, will first need to obtain the five-star weapon Host’s Sparkling Wine. Here’s where to find this weapon in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth.

To get the Host’s Sparkling Wine five-start Host weapon in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and craft the Prince of Star Night, players will need to defeat a specific group of Keepers of the City. These are packs of stronger enemies that are found in specific locations throughout Hawaii and Yokohama. Engaging these enemies is not only a test of skill but also a necessary step for acquiring high-quality crafting materials and certain weapons essential for creating 7-star weapons for various jobs, including the Host’s Sparkling Wine.

The Host’s Sparkling Wine drops from a pack of Keepers of the City located in an alley lot behind Kasuga's Apartment in Isezaki Ijincho. Players looking to retrieve this weapon during their first playthrough of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth can obtain this item only when playing as Kiryu in Yokohama. In the post-game, players can freely switch between Hawaii and Japan by visiting the upstairs room of either Survive Bar or Revolve Bar, but until then, it's possible that players may not be able to get this weapon until progressing in the game.

Once in Isezaki Ijincho, players should fast travel to the Rose Blossom Cabaret taxi stand and head Southeast down the road past Kasuga's Apartment, until reaching a narrow alley that leads to the empty lot. Here, players will encounter a group of Keepers that, upon defeating, will drop the Host's Sparkling Wine. If the first group of defeated Keepers does not drop the weapon, leave the area and return. When a higher-level version of this group of Keepers has spawned at the location, defeating them will reward the Host's Sparkling Wine.
