Yakuza Ishin coming to the west at last

(There's an RGG conference tomorrow, so more platforms might get announced)

The short story is that Ishin is the best or second best Yakuza game depending on who you ask, so buy it if you remotely enjoyed any of the other ones. The combat is basically Yakuza 0's but with gun and sword styles. Also if you've seen Rurouni Kenshin, you're playing as this guy:

Lol was waiting for your reaction. Pretty excited about this! More so because I miss Kiryu lol

@SolidGame_basic: I guess I'm more excited for others since Ishin has been on a lot of Yakuza fans' wishlists for years. I already played an import copy, but Ishin is so good, that I have no issue double dipping lol.

Oh, and SEGA tweeted out all the platforms:

Epic fail not using Yakuza in the title.

Nice. So is this like a Kiwami version of the original?

Of course no Switch version lol

@valgaav_219: Make a game based on Japan, release on consoles Japanese people dont buy.

Sort of. They're using UE4, so it's a remake like the Kiwami games in that regard. Kiwami 1 though was built with the Yakuza 3 through 0 engine and Kiwami 2 was with the dragon engine. I think they made the right call going with UE4 this time, because I don't think you can replicate Ishin's combat if they went with the dragon engine again.

@Renegade_Fury: should be an interesting show tomorrow! I’m starting to itch for more Yakuza lol

"Judgment and Lost Judgment PC Version Rated by ESRB."

I look forward to this more :))

This looks like a good time. I don’t get excited for many games anymore, but I’m looking forward to this one.

I also loved ronin prev to. 2 more samurai type games like ghost. = awesome

Maybe people should quit being stubborn.

Wow, this is great! Looking forward to checking this out on the XSX.

They showed a gameplay trailer for this game.

It's a samurai game, not a yakuza game.

Good timing from Sega, now that feudal Japan games are quite popular.

10 minutes of glorious gameplay

Looks like I was right...

Ghost of Tsushima Gave Sega Confidence to Release Like a Dragon: Ishin in the West

Feudal Japan is a hot setting right now, with hits like Nioh, Sekiro, and Ghost of Tsushima, and anticipated games like Assassin's Creed Red. That's why Sega finally decided to bring over Ishin after leaving it in Japan for eight years.
