Yesterday saw the release of ‘Yakuza 6: The Song of Life’, a new entry to the long running series, which is said to be the conclusion to Kazuma Kiryu’s story. In this last game, you see how far he’s willing to go for his family. This game is the seventh in the ‘Yakuza’ franchise, and it’s another action-adventure game produced by Sega, citing the story of Japanese mobster Kazuma Kiryu, who awakens in a hospital from the previous game, where he is approached by the police, who proceed to arrest him for his past crimes.
He willingly spends three years in prison in order to live peacefully with the children he has fostered, and upon being released, he has found that Harua has gone missing. Kazuma returns to Kamurocho to search for Haruka. That’s the story in a nutshell, but we wouldn’t want to give it all away now, would we?
So, lets see the trailer for Yakuza 6: The Song of Life, which was released internationally on April 17th, 2018 for the PS4, after originally being released in Japan on December 6th, 2016. It’s been a long wait for all the Yakuza fans outside of the rising sun, hasn’t it?
So far the game has received favourable reviews from many reviewers, with Metacritic giving the new game an 83/100 rating, GameSpot giving the game an 8/10, and GamesRadar+ giving it 4.5 stars out of 5. Now for the gameplay trailer!
