Yakuza Kiwami is the extreme remake of the game that launched the series nearly 20 years ago. Play as former yakuza Kazuma Kiryu and unwind a 10-billion-yen conspiracy in Tokyo’s red-light district, fueled by his fists and unyielding resolve that will make him a legend.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 has the ‘Dragon of Dojima’ Kazuma Kiryu return to face the ‘Dragon of Kansai,’ Ryuji Goda in an all-out war between rival Yakuza gangs in the sequel to Yakuza Kiwami.
