A very literal remake of a PS2 game, this game keeps the same flaws a PS2 game would have. Many things like the main story design (including an entire part where you go back and forth to get food for a dog, multiple times in a row) are terrible and only contribute to wasting your time.
The story overall is interesting but the small bits can be really boring. There are a few cool additions such as Majima Everywhere.
One of the biggest flaws of the game is that the combat system has evolved, but the boss movesets haven't. In hard difficulty, you'll be stunned and grounded a LOT especially by the gank fight bosses where you'll face multiple gun holders that will constantly send you to the ground. It's extremely infuriating and the cause of it is that the movesets were not updated to work well with the newer combat system.
Overall an OK game in the original Kiryu series.
