An incredibly captivating mystery thriller, with action scenes akin to old martial arts flicks. Takayuki Yagami is a stellar lead and quickly became one of my favorite main characters of all time within the series and in general, a character who acts a former lawyer turned detective with a strong sense of justice.

This game also has probably one of my favorite combat systems alongside Yakuza 5 and Kiwami 1, and having one of the best OSTs in the entire franchise. There are very little complaints with this game in my eyes besides tailing mission, but that can be easily overlooked with how much the game provides to make up for it. Also Penumbra go dummy hard, top 3 boss fight in the entire series

Yagami would’ve solved the Zodiac case in 15 minutes btw
