It was a fun distraction, but I think I liked the Live Chat in Yakuza 6 better. This actually requires fairly significant mastery of the English language, as you will need to understand the context of completed sentences before you even know what the available word choices will be. There’s also another minigame that involves scantily clad live action girls posing for Kiryu’s camera where he has to-wait for it-come up with complete and grammatically correct sentences it order to see more scenes. The Sega arcades also have Virtual-On and Virtua Fighter 2, which are frankly two games that I can’t stand playing, but your mileage may vary. There are a few other new minigames too, including Toylets, where you literally have to pee to victory (and Kiryu-the protagonist-now has a persistent bladder meter throughout the whole game just for this), and Bingo Golf, which involves hitting golf balls onto a giant bingo card. In Yakuza 6 I felt like I was just constantly spamming to move my army forward, but in Yakuza Kiwami 2, the positioning and classes of your units really matters. I consider this an improvement because the real-time strategy aspect of this just works better in a defensive context. ![]() This time around rather than pushing your army through a large map to eventually reach a boss or two, the player is instead tasked with protecting vehicles and objects in their base. Still, fans of this mini game should be very satisfied!Īnd from Yakuza 6, the Clan Creator is back. It’s also been updated with some quality of life features that make it easier to play than before, even if the core gameplay hasn’t really changed much. The cabaret management minigame makes its return from Yakuza 0, and though Yakuza Kiwami 2 takes place decades later, it still feels like picking up right where you left off thanks to the returning characters and connected storyline. ![]() In fact, it often feels more like a sequel to Yakuza 0 and Yakuza 6 than the original Yakuza (or its Kiwami remake). Multifaceted Sequelīut for players that have already played the original, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is still worth playing. It may be a little slow to start while introducing the cast and their backgrounds, but everything ties together brilliantly by the end of this lengthy campaign. ![]() If you’re experiencing it for the first time, prepare yourself for one of the best storylines in the entire series. It includes a new translation and rerecorded voice work, and tells the story more accurately than before (while keeping some classic lines that were worthy of preservation). Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a remake and expansion of Yakuza 2, and a high point for the series.
