“There comes a time in every long running series that someone wants to try something a bit different and when it comes to the Yakuza series, the best time for that was after the events of Yakuza 6. Sure, prequels and remakes of the original few releases in the series were a nice way to bring newcomers into the fold but it was time for something brand new that changed the series mostly from the ground up and that happens is what Sega has attempted with Yakuza: Like A Dragon. Featuring a brand new protagonist, a new combat system, and even mostly focusing on a new location, is this latest entry in the franchise a worthwhile risk?”
