Game publisher SEGA and developer Ryu Ga Gotoku recently announced that the spin-off Yakuza game Judgment is now coming to new-gen consoles and Google Stadia in a couple of months.
The game’s narrative is a tale of murder and mystery and now it will be in a remastered form on the Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and Google Stadia this coming April 23. It will only cost $39.99.
With the new hardware, players can expect refined visuals in 60 frames per second with improved load times and all previously released DLCs on all three platforms.
This game has been praised as the best crime drama not on TV. Judgment was originally launched exclusively on PlayStation 4 way back in 2019. With this release, it marks its first release on Xbox and Stadia.
Judgment is an action thriller that puts players in the shoes of Takayuki Yagami, disgraced attorney turned rugged private detective, as he uncovers the mystery behind a grisly series of murders. Joined by his partner, ex-yakuza Masaharu Kaito, Yagami must claw his way through Kamurocho’s criminal underground to unravel the truth – as painful as it may be.
In addition to locale, Judgment takes on the classic hallmarks of the Yakuza series through the eyes of Yagami. Fans will recognize rough-and-tumble street fights, engrossing side missions with locals, and comedy breaks with mini-games. Judgment ups the ante with emphasis on investigative gameplay tracking suspects and discovering clues as Yagami walks the thin line of justice in a world of corruption. Packed with a thrilling story, filmic combat and a cast of intense characters, Judgment will keep all aspiring private detectives on their toes.
