The Yakuza trio simultaneously stepped onto the PC, the Tet game is here, right?

Following the success of Yakuza 0, Kiwami and Kiwami 2 on PC and Xbox One platforms, RGG Studio has decided to bring the next 3 chapters in the story of Kiryu Kazuma to these 2 platforms.

Yakuza 3, 4, and 5 are titles that were first released between 2009 and 2012 for the PS3. After Yakuza 0, Kiwami and Kiwami 2 created a relatively large new fan base, SEGA decided to remaster the 3 games above. Now PC gamers can also experience this trio of works.

It should be noted that this is not a complete remake like Kiwami but HD graphics to 1080p with 60fps. The reason is that to be able to remake a game, RGG Studio will take about 1 year and if they remake all 3, they will not have time to continue the story of the Yakuza universe.

Even so, the gameplay of all 3 is still not outdated. If you’ve experienced Yakuza 0 and Kiwami, it won’t take you too long to get used to the combat system.

The control method of the trio of games is relatively simple with buttons such as light hit, strong hit, block, target and object lock. However, with a little ingenuity and creativity, players can completely come up with beautiful combos. If you are bored with bare hands, the game also has a weapon system such as knives, swords, clubs, guns to “change the wind”.

The distinctive feature of the Yakuza series is the Heat bar. This is an energy bar that increases each time the protagonist attacks, and when it reaches a certain level, the protagonist can unleash brutal attacks with high damage.

Besides the fighting array, the factor that makes the Yakuza series special is the entertainment activities that you can participate in. Our main characters can go karaoke, play billiards, fish, play cards, play baseball, car racing, hunting and other activities.

Despite having a relatively close release time, Yakuza 3, 4 and 5 all have their own characteristics and are not at all “old wine in a new bottle”.

In Yakuza 3, besides the familiar Kamurocho neighborhood, players can also visit the island of Okinawa, one of the most beautiful landmarks in Japan.

With Yakuza 4, although returning to Kamurocho, this is the first game that allows players to explore the rooftop and basement area of ​​​​the city. In addition, this is also the first Yakuza part that allows us to control 3 new characters besides Kiryu Kazuma.

They are interest-free lender Akiyama Shun with lightning-fast kicks, “super muscular” escaped prisoner Taiga Saejima and policeman Masayoshi Tanimura. 4 characters with completely different fighting styles have made the gameplay of this part much more diverse.

Finally, Yakuza 5, this is the game with the largest scale in the series, if you want to travel to Japan at home, this is the game that you cannot miss. Yakuza 5 allows players to admire the beauty of Fukuoka, Sapporo, Osaka, Nagoya and of course Kamurocho in Tokyo. In addition, the game lets us control two new characters, Tatsuo Shinada, a former baseball player, and Haruka Sawamura, the adopted daughter of the main character Kiryu Kazuma. Unlike the above characters, her gameplay belongs to the Rhythm game genre, not combat.

Yakuza 3, 4 and 5 are the games that gamers interested in the gentle “gypsy” Kiryu Kazuma cannot miss. Moreover, because it is in the traditional beat em up genre, gamers who do not like the Turn-based RPG of Yakuza: Like a Dragon have another option to quench their thirst for action games.

Currently, each game is being sold for 400,000 VND on Steam, but if you buy a package of 3 games, the price is only 800,000 VND. This is a bargain because each game can provide users with 100 hours of gameplay.

If readers are still wondering what to buy this Tet to play, then Yakuza Remastered Collection is a good choice.

On March 25th, Yakuza 6, the final chapter in Kiryu Kazuma’s story, will also arrive on PC. With this being a game released in 2016, this game will have beautiful graphics similar to Yakuza Kiwami 2 and Yakuza: Like a Dragon.
