I’d also beaten up a baby nursery full of full grown men clad in diapers, struck flirtatious poses for a snap-happy photographer who was wearing nothing but a Speedo and a smile, and drank can after can of vending machine coffee in order to make my bladder full enough to beat the high score in the interactive urinal-based minigame.Yes, Yakuza Kiwami 2 adheres to the established series recipe that takes a meaty slab of brutality and bastes it with silly sauce, and with an enhanced version of the Dragon Engine from Yakuza 6 under the hood, it delivers an experience overall that’s second only to Yakuza 0, at least since the series hit the PlayStation 4.Īs far as remakes go, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a more significant step up up from Yakuza 2 than 2017’s Yakuza Kiwami was from the original.
