Drink Links explained in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
If you don't know what Drink Links are, it's a mechanic that makes its return from the previous mainline title in the series, Yakuza: Like a Dragon (or Like a Dragon 7).
After you've deepened your bond with a character, you can hop over to a bar and start the Drink Link. There are five for each character besides Ichiban and Kiryu, giving you a chance to get to know them better, as well as making them more powerful allies in combat by unlocking special abilities as you complete more Drink Links.
Drink Links are essentially conversations that give you a glimpse into a character's personality while giving you the chance to boost a stat of the main protagonists, depending on the answers you've provided.
