The remastered edition with enhanced graphics and improved framerates will introduce various language options for the first time, including French, Italian, German, and Spanish.

In Yakuza Kiwami, protagonist Kazuma Kiryu covers for his associates in organized crime and takes the blame for a murder. He spends ten years in prison, before returning to the red light district of Kamurocho. Upon his return, Kiryu is challenged by Majima, a ruthless competitor belonging to his former organization, the Tojo Clan. He becomes embroiled in a plot surrounding the daughter of a politician seeking to destroy the Tojo Clan.

Yakuza Kiwami is currently available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles, along with Windows through Steam, verified for use with the Steam Deck. The digital soundtrack by Sega Sound Team is streaming on Spotify and Apple Music.


From the Nintendo Switch product page:
Take the fall for a murder and emerge from prison 10 years later to yakuza clans on the brink of a war that hurtles you on an intense journey of love, humanity, and betrayal, fueled by your fists and unyielding resolve, set against a bustling red-light district in modern-day Japan.

Dynamically switch between 4 fighting styles (brutal "Brawler", speedy "Rush", overpowering "Beast", legendary "Dragon"), while utilizing makeshift weapons scattered around the streets to takedown hordes of enemies in realistic fights that are exhilarating and fun for anyone to pick up and play.

After breaking some faces, take a break from the main story to enjoy the immersive nightlife activities scattered throughout the city like karaoke, the casino, cabaret club, arcade, batting cages and more as you encounter colorful characters from all walks of life.
