The editors liked

  • Kamurocho and Sotenbori feel more lifelike than ever
  • No load screens and seamless combat transitions
  • One of the strongest titles in the series
  • Fun combat
  • Engaging substories that can be just as engrossing as the main tale
  • Fantastic story and characters are enhanced by modernization
  • Straightforward but dynamic combat rarely gets stale
  • Vibrant and atmospheric world that's wonderful to lose yourself in
  • Cabaret Club Grand Prix and Majima Construction Creator are substantial
  • A more polished dragon engine
  • Yakuza staple of balancing the irrelevant and serious
  • Memorable antagonist and a story worth getting invested in
  • Twice the city
  • Twice the fun
  • Toylets
  • Gravure photo shoots
  • Cabaret clubs and more
  • Brand new playable Majima chapters
  • NJPW wrestlers guest star in the clan creator once again
  • Brawlerstyle combat still feels great and there's little to keep you from
  • Richly detailed and densely packed recreation of Japan
  • Deep and fun combat system
  • Strong characters that fit perfectly into an excellent gangster story

The editors didn't like

  • Story is weaker than the first two outings
  • Fewer fighting styles
  • Fewer meaningful upgrade options
  • Omissions like a small third area are missed
  • The section with Majima offers no character progression
  • And lacks any substories
  • Majima Saga is disappointingly shallow
  • Some holdover mechanics feel dated
  • Newly added Majima stories a bit underwhelming
  • The series is starting to hit diminishing returns for those that keep up on every release
  • Gravure shoots are too risque for enjoying in public or on stream
  • Encounter rate for random street fights feels a bit too high
  • Some highly questionable content that undermines much of the game's charm
  • Every encounter tends to get solved in the same way
  • A few ham-fisted story moments

  • Abstract:  We have already seen Sega's Ryu ga Gotoku Studio rebirth the first Yakuza game with Yakuza Kiwami. It brought with it a visual upgrade, but this was an older game splashed with a fresh coat of paint since it released after Yakuza 0, it was clear to see...

  • While other Yakuza 6 elements, such as the Clan Builder, will also be reverse-imported to Yakuza Kiwami 2, although the E3 demo session didn't provide an opportunity to test it out. However, it's already clear that the game is a massive upgrade over the P...

  • Despite the fact that the made-for-PlayStation 4 Yakuza 6 was only released a few short months ago, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is the best and most fully formed Yakuza game of 2018 even though it's a remake of a game that's now two console generations old. Its story...

  • Una buena historia original, Añadidos respecto al original, El motor Dragon Engine
  • No deja de ser un remake, Sin textos en español
  • En una época en la que los remastered y remake son realmente habituales, es de agradecer que al menos estos lleguen con ciertas novedades, haciendo que lo puedan disfrutar aquellos que no han jugado al original, y que al menos aporte cierto incentivo para...

  • Yakuza Kiwami 2 est un excellent remake qui vous plongera de nombreuses heures dans un Japon tiraillé par la guerre des clans. Il est doté d'un univers cohérent, truffé de détails et de contenu. La trame scénaristique est d'excellente facture tout comme l...
