I never played a Yakuza game in the past, but when I saw some reviews to get some insight on the game I decided it to give it a go and boy was I surprised, the game it's pretty funny, the powers, abilities and everything else is insane but in a good way if you own a PS5 and like RPG games, likeable characters, fun side stories, give this game a chance by the way since it is a Yakuza game the story revolves around crime drama but it is unfolded in a very good and stilish manner.

Great for new comers in the Yakuza series.
Turn based wacky combat and story. Keeps you coming back for more. Mini games and lots of different items and rewards are hidden all over The city of Yokohama. Definitely recommend for any JRPG fan.

Love the move to turn based JRPG. I know this isn’t everyone’s favorite but I get the feeling it isn’t here to stay so don’t worry. Great story and memorable characters. A must play if you are a fan of JRPG’s.

Yakuza like a dragon quest, the story is great I love it, and the gameplay mechanism are a breath of fresh air to the franchise, I hope we get a sequel.

A different take on the Yakuza series

So Yakuza went from a brawler style action game to an RPG. How did it go? Pretty great actually. The RPG mechanics in this game work surprisingly well. The combat is still fun despite the major change. The other usual Yakuza tropes are here. Great characters, great story, tons of sidequests and mini games to occupy you outside of pressing the story forward, even games within the game playable in the game's arcades. You get a lot out of this one I definitely recommend picking it up.

I've beat Yakuza 6 and loved it, Judgement was a different take on storyline in the Yakuza series which I've still yet to beat, playing this one is pretty awesome and I'm determined to beat this one as well. I'm loving it. I've heard rumors that Judgement 2 is in the works so after beating Like a Dragon, I will need to go back to beating Judgement game. The graphics, storyline, music, game-play are excellent on this one. The RPG elements are done superbly.

I have loved this game so far. However when I went to play again from my save point it won’t load. Says game must be downloaded. I have downloaded it fully so I don’t know why I’m getting this error. But overall a great fun game and would recommend.

Being my first Yakuza game I expected it to be kind of like GTA or something but I'm glad I was wrong. The game is hilarious, interesting, and the combat is engaging.

A good RPG for the PS5. It has a different feel than most RPGs. The game is pretty much the same as the PS4 version with faster load speeds and a slight increase in graphics. If you haven't played the PS4 version and are lucky enough to have a PS5 this is a good game to pick up.

Unpopular opinion, but I am personally not a big fan of turn based combat. Feels slow and way less immersive too me. It does have its fun moments in combat for sure but I prefer combat like Judgment, or FF7 Remake.
