About Judgment in a nutshell

This page in our guide to Judgment contains a description of the game and a set of information about the new game from the creators of the Yakuza series.

Judgment is very similar to previous games in the Yakuza series. The city in which the game takes place, Kamurocho, is well known to veterans of the series and has the same layout as before. We play the role of detective Takayuki Yagami and solve subsequent investigations by running around Kamurocho and interacting with other characters. The game is linear, and the story told here is presented in a cinematic way - get ready to watch numerous cut-scenes that are interrupted by short fragments of gameplay.

You can quickly run into other enemies while exploring the city. The combat system is quite complex, offers a lot of freedom and looks spectacular. You can use all sorts of items, complete different finishes, and fight in different places, including shops and restaurants. Your hero gains experience, and you can get additional skills that will help him in combat or solve cases.

In addition to the main plot, the city offers many additional activities. You can complete additional tasks, make friends with individual residents of the city, participate in mini-games or fight mini-bosses. Almost every chapter adds new actions. Therefore, it is necessary to take a break from the serious main plot and, for example, go in search of a dangerous ... thief of used lingerie.
