Fell in love with this series since the firstborn one on PS2. What a great ending for a great series. So emotional. Gameplay is same as usual beat them up. But the finishing moves are savages and funny. The side quests are ridiculously funny sometimes. Get this game. One of the best PS4 exclusive.

Have recently became Yakuza fan and just cant stop playing these games. Yakuza 6 as developed for PS4 from grounds up, looks amazing and has a ton of content with amazing story like every other Yakuza game. Additional bonus is the essence of art mini artbook filled with great art work.

Yakuza 6 is the latest game in the Yakuza series (I believe the fourth title available for purchase on the PS4.) The game relies heavily on story and also its melee combat. Not spoiling any details, but if you played any of the previous titles, Yakuza 6 plays like the prior titles. If you've never played a Yakuza game, this is a fine title to jump into. This packaging also comes with a number of physical collectible items (like an art book in particular.)

The Yakuza series continues to impress. From all the different shops to mini games, you can just run around for hours doing side missions for fun. The story is great and it ends on a good note for Kiryu. This release also came in a nice art book case that had some fan art in it.

Yakuza 6: Sayonara Kiryu

This is the final game in the Yakuza series. I've only played a couple of them so I'm not the most familiar. But this is a neat game. Action Adventure game with some RPG elements. Lots of people compare the Yakuza series to Shen Mue and that's a very good comparison. You can spend a lot of time exploring streets, doing side quests or playing mini games. The only issue for me... As I get older, I look at representation of non hetero characters and here we have women that are merely tropes and props. It's a bit tiring to see women in those roles, but the game play is nice, the story is wacky, but cool and the game allows form some free

The Yakuza series have been one of my favorites in the past. This entry was no exception. Storyline is deeply intriguing and the gameplay is fantastic. As an added bonus, it came in a stylish hard case with artwork inspired by the series.

If you've been following the Yakuza series, you know that this game is all about Kiryu's personal story that becomes involved with the underground dealing of the Japanese mafia.
The final part of his journey is pretty well made, with a whole new engine for the game to boot. A gripping story, a plethora of side stories, and loads of charm make this game a pretty great package.

If you played Yakuza you know what to expect. The New Dragon Engine has incredible graphics and detail. There are some issues with slow down in fighting and actions scenes but this Engine is only getting stronger

The End of Kiryu's Story

This is the final installment for series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu; it can be played on its own, the game has a recap of previous games in the title menu, and is a standalone story. However, having played the previous games will give greater context to characters and events that have changed their lives leading up to this game.
This is also the first game the developers made using a new graphic and combat engine so the combat feels a bit more limited compared to Yakuza 0 having multiple fighting styles. It does little to detract from the overall experience though and the story is strong enough to make up for those shortcomings.

The Yakuza series is such a great series and although 6 is not the best way to get introduced into the main series, it is still a really cool game to play through if anything to experience Japan's culture and weirdness in real life. Of course the game is full of action and more, very nostalgic if you loved Shenmue back on the Sega dreamcast. Highly recommended. The included book has some tattoos designs among other pages of art, nothing extraordinary though.
