Fun game. I take it in small doses, too much Yakuza can become a grind, especially now that it's in RPG-format. Still, you can expect your standard Yakuza fare; mini-games, hilarious sub-stories, convoluted organized crime conspiracies with twists and turns, dating, owning a business, etc. Surprisingly, the dub is great. I tend to play the series in its original language even if I have the option for a dub (as Judgement did) but Like A Dragon's dub is fun, campy, and totally lip-synced to the characters-- they're animated in English as well. It definitely makes me skip text a bit less compared to the old Yakuza games, and it helped deepen my sense of the characters. Something about having a 1:1 on the performance really was nice. I still sometimes switch it back and forth, mostly out of curiosity. Steel book is sweet.

Great JRPG! I love the combat system and the story is really good. Well worth the price :)

Solid game. Lost of fun. Good RPG action mixed with Yakuza comedy.

Love the yakuza series and love the addition of turn based combat bring new life to the series

Very different from previous Yakuza games. The RPG esque turn based battle system takes some getting used to. The story is fairly linear but full of that soap opera drama. English voice cast is surprisingly solid too.

A fantastic new addition to the Yakuza series. Combat is different but fun! Great story and characters!

Great graphics. The back story is enjoyable. Ease of play is great. Couldn't stop playing for days.

Love this game and got this as soon as it came out. Plays well and love the turn base fighting!

I really enjoyed Yakuza: Like a Dragon. The game follows a Yakuza member who has been released from prison and comes home to find everything changed for the worse. They bring back a lot of fan favorite activities like shogi, arcades, karaoke, batting center, and add a lot of new ones too. If you're a fan of the series this is a definite pick-up. Even if you're new to the series you will find this extremely enjoyable.

Love the turn-based style Although still not as good as persona. I hope they will improve it

This game is over the top and amazing. Seriously a fun time and one I would always recommend.

A good change in gameplay, as wel as a good change of pace if you’d played the Yakuza series. This time Kiryu is not the main character but the new protagonist exhibits not the same emotions, but the same energy as Kiryu.

This is a fun romp. Like Jo Jo's bizarre adventure meets the the FF7 reboot. A good time.

Absolutely a great addition to the ever going Yakuza series. Changing from a real time battle system to a turn based battle system had me weary at first but after playing it, I was completely converted. With the addition of the RPG elements such as allowing each character to be a certain class, it made the game even more enjoyable. On top of an amazing story, this is a must have for any yakuza fan or JRPG fan.

If you are a fan of Yakuza you will want this, but just know it is a turn based rpg.

fun game, great sense of humor, high production values. highly recommended.

I love yakuza series... very nice game .. story driven and very easy to pick up and play

So glad Best Buy had the steelbook version left. Thanks again

Yakuza has been a franchise that I have enjoyed since Yakuza 3 on the PS3 way back in 2009, and this installment has to rank as one of the best ones yet. The change to a turn based RPG was a welcome one, although I will miss the Action RPG element of the game. Kasuga is a very worthy replacement for Kazuma, and his slapstick humor fits right in with the Yakuza series.

Okay game I didn’t like that much I had an impression that I would love this game but I didn’t
