Just because Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima have a lot at stake in Yakuza 0, doesn’t mean that they won’t have time for fun. Getting back into the good graces of the Yakuza is exhausting, but thankfully 1980s Japan is the perfect setting for all the excess and vice one could hope for!
Alluring flashing lights and neon signs adorn the numerous entertainment establishments that line the streets of the redlight districts of Kamurocho and Sotenbori.

Features:
- ● The Dragon’s Origins: What lies in a man’s past defines his future, and in this case, we learn a lot about what inspires Kiryu down the paths he takes in the rest of the Yakuza series. Plus, you don’t get to be called “Dragon” without being able to knock a few heads. Combat styles can be hot-swapped during fights for some of the most intense battles in the Yakuza series to date.
- ● Embrace the Mad Dog: For the first time in a numbered game, long-time NPC Goro Majima is now playable. With his own fighting style, abilities, and his penchant for turning sleaze into profit, stepping into the role of Yakuza’s most eccentric character will provide some eye-opening insight.
- ● The Decadence of the 1980s in Japan: Cash rules everything in the world of Yakuza 0, and in the game, there are a million ways to spend, make, or take money. From cash spilling out of the pockets of gang members you fight to Telephone Clubs, Disco Halls, or even Pocket Circuit car races, there are tons of ways to be a well-to-do gangster.
