Accompanied by a boy named Noah, who saved his life on the beach, Majima sets out in search of clues to recover his lost memories. Of course, it’s not long before the big shot finds himself involved in more conflicts against criminals, modern-day pirates, and “other scoundrels.”
New Yakuza will focus on two combat styles
For the first time in the series, you will be able to jump during battles. Players will also be able to freely switch between two battle styles: Mad Dog and Sea Dog. The former is based on fast-paced Yakuza-style combat, while the latter allows players to dual-wield cleavers and use special side weapons such as firearms and a chain hook.
