Yakuza 0 Video Review
Yakuza 0 is being localized by Sega and will be released physically and digitally in the Americas and Europe beginning tomorrow Jan. 24, 2017. The game will be available on PlayStation 4 and we posted our full written review last week. When Judi reviewed the game, she said: “Yakuza 0 is an immersive world that newcomers to the series can easily jump into and returning fans can enjoy. The story unfolds in a clever manner that keeps you engaged and curious as to what not only will but also could happen next. With an abundance of activities to partake in apart from the main story, you’ll no doubt spend countless hours exploring Kamurocho and Sotenbori. With such a dynamic and interactive interface, Yakuza 0 will keep you coming back for more and even catch you off guard when you least expect. It’s a game everyone should experience or at least try out.”
As we just mentioned we posted our written review last week, but for those not interested in reading, we have the video review for you right here:
Yakuza 0 Features:
• The Dragon’s Origins: What lies in a man’s past defines his future, and in this case, we learn a lot about what inspires Kiryu down the paths he takes in the rest of the Yakuza series. Plus, you don’t get to be called “Dragon” without being able to knock a few heads. Combat styles can be hot-swapped during fights for some of the most intense battles in the Yakuza series to date.
• Embrace the Mad Dog: For the first time in a numbered game, long-time NPC Goro Majima is now playable. With his own fighting style, abilities, and his penchant for turning sleaze into profit, stepping into the role of Yakuza’s most eccentric character will provide some eye-opening insight.
• The Decadence of the 1980s in Japan: Cash rules everything in the world of Yakuza 0, and in the game, there are a million ways to spend, make, or take money. From cash spilling out of the pockets of gang members you fight to Telephone Clubs, Disco Halls, or even Pocket Circuit car races, there are tons of ways to be a well-to-do gangster.
