Here are the PS5 Specs for Yakuza: Like a Dragon

Maybe Skip This if You Have the Xbox Version

Yakuza: Like a Dragon was a surprise hit for the franchise purely because it was so different, being a turn-based RPG as opposed to the beat-em-ups that came before, and taking a delightfully meta twist along the way โ€“ weโ€™re seeing the events of the game through the eyes of video game obsessed Ichiban, fresh out of prison for a crime he didnโ€™t commit and then left for dead by the very man who arranged for him to take the fall โ€“ who wouldnโ€™t have a few screws loose?

 

The game was originally released on the PS4 in Japan all the way back in January 2020, with a Worldwide release on PS4 and Xbox Series X/S on November 10th (Excluding Japan, which is seeing the Xbox release next month. I know, itโ€™s confusing), with the PS5 edition seeing a worldwide release on March 2nd (this date is the same in Japan.)

Thereโ€™s been some speculation about the specs and what new features the PS5 edition will bring โ€“ such as whether it will make use of the PS5 controllerโ€™s adaptive triggers or haptic feedback โ€“ but it looks like as far as specs go, itโ€™s nothing weโ€™ve not seen before: The game will run exactly the same as it did on the Xbox Series X/S, at least on a visual level. youโ€™ll get the option to switch from performance mode โ€“ which has a 30 FPS frame rate and 4K โ€“ or a frame rate option, which reduces the resolution to 1440p but raises the framerate to 60 FPS.

The bad news is that, if youโ€™ve already bought the PS4 edition, your save file wonโ€™t transfer over to the PS5, so youโ€™ll need to start a fresh story โ€“ but if a game has lobsters as a summon, is that really a problem?
