Earlier at the moment within the RPS treehouse, I used to be explaining to Nate that the Yakuza games are great and kindhearted, not simply critical crime drama (although they’re additionally critical crime drama). Then as if my love of gaming’s greatest dads is ready to form actuality, mere hours later Sega have introduced that Yakuza Kiwami 2 will come to Windows 10 and Xbox Game Pass on July 30th. So extra folks will quickly be capable of spend extra time with my two wrestledads. I’m so completely satisfied for you.
The remake of Sega’s 2006 brawler RPG sequel debuted on PC in May 2019. Once once more, it’s a melodramatic combine of great mob intrigue and foolishness a few burly fella who turns into a loving surrogate father determine to nearly everybody who meets. But Yakuza 0, Kiwami, and Kiwami 2 got here to PC in fast succession so I do perceive if you happen to didn’t really feel like forking out £25 on it immediately.
“If you’ve had your fill of fighting and walking the same city streets, and don’t really care for these tattooed agony uncles anymore, then off you go (pfft, good riddance),” Brendy mentioned in our Yakuza Kiwami 2 review. “But if you don’t mind button bashing through some brawls, just to see more of these good fellas solving bad problems with their strong fists and stern words, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is ready, once again, to get ridiculous.”
A 12 months later, it’s set to hitch Yakuza Zero and Kiwami on Xbox Game Pass and ah g’wan.
Yakuza: Like A Dragon, the brand new game which stars a complete new doofus and introduces turn-based tactical RPG fight, is coming to PC later this year. Sega had additionally beforehand hinted that the rest of the series in-between might come to PC.
Last month I used to be telling Nate about Yakuza 6’s childcare minigame and properly, for all our sakes let’s hope I actually am in a position to form actuality and it comes on over. And perhaps I’ll persuade Nate to strive a Yakuza game so I’m not continually shouting “HAVE I NOT TOLD YOU ABOUT MY DADS?” within the treehouse loud sufficient that the neighbours throw outdated boots at us out their bed room window.
