Unexpectedly, this only encompasses the prologue chapter of the game.
This one choice then changes Kiryu’s life forever, as he becomes banished from the Tojo Clan and has 10 years of his life stolen from him. Since Nishiki has been under hardships as of late (his sister is in terminal condition), Kiryu tells him to flee the scene with Yumi so that Nishiki doesn’t end up abandoning his family in their time of need. On a stormy night in 1995, Kiryu’s best friend, Akira Nishikiyama, ends up killing the patriarch of the Tojo Clan after the man kidnaps Kiryu and Nishiki’s best friend, a woman named Yumi. The game follows the story of Kiryu Kazuma and his return to society after a 10-year stint in jail. Yakuza Kiwami is a remake of the first game in that series, which released 12 years ago in Japan. If you were to hop on a plane and take a stroll down the streets of KabukichÅ, Tokyo, you’d be surprised at how not lost you are. The main setting of every Yakuza title, the city of Kamurocho, is based on the real-life red-light district of Tokyo with meticulous attention to detail. Released: Janu(JP), Aug(US, EU), Febru(PC)įor those unaware, the Yakuza games are a long-running series of action-RPG inspired beat-’em-ups that can be summed up as a Japan simulator. It still makes for a kick-ass game, even if it’s not the definitive version of the legendary title.
#Yakuza kiwami majima racing update
Whether or not Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s intent with Yakuza Kiwami was to fully remake the original classic or just update it is irrelevant the end result is that we’ve gotten a smoother, prettier version of the first Yakuza title that doesn’t take advantage of every update done to the series over the years. The last time we saw some truly extensive remakes was back in the early ‘00s with Resident Evil and Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (both on GameCube, coincidentally). With HD remasters being a lot easier to produce, most publishers don’t feel the need to commission full-on restorations of their back catalogs anymore. Remakes in the gaming space have kind of gone the way of the dodo.
