This game hits like an absolute truck if you’ve played all the previous games and highly advise you do just that as the payoff is incredibly worth it. (even 7, there is heavy spoilers for that game by the end.)
Does nearly everything perfectly. The best mainline brawler combat for Kiryu we’ve gotten. Extremely good writing for Kiryus character as he gets one of the best scenes in the series by a long shot. An incredibly well written story despite how short it was yet it was well paced and intriguing throughout as it also clears up so many questions from 6 and 7.
Gaiden has single-handedly made 8 my most anticipated game for next year. Kiryu is my second dad.
10/10
