Kenzan and Ishin are two historical takes on the Yakuza series, with Kenzan being set in the Edo period and Ishin in the Bakumatsu period.

While it technically stands on its own, it builds on the events of Judgment and also spoils a significant event from Like a Dragon. Lost Judgment is the sequel to Judgment and takes place after the events of Yakuza: Like a Dragon. It will show changes in Kamurocho from later in the series, but you can play Judgment anytime. Judgment is canon and set after the events of Yakuza 6, but is a separate story and requires no knowledge of the Yakuza series.

Judgment is a detective spin-off set in Kamurocho, the same city where most of the series takes place, available for the PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X. It has no relation to the main series and can be played anytime.

For the best experience, save Dead Souls until you’ve finished Yakuza 4.įist of the North Star: Lost Paradise on the PS4 is the spin-off most fully removed from the Yakuza series, since it is a Fist of the North Star game that uses the Yakuza gameplay formula. Since it’s not canon, you might think there’s no particular time when you should play Dead Souls, but it draws on content from up through Yakuza 4.

#YAKUZA KENZAN ENGLISH PS3#

Yakuza: Dead Souls is a non-canon spin-off for the PS3 set during a zombie outbreak in Kamurocho. There are three localized Yakuza spin-offs: To summarize: start with Yakuza 0 or Yakuza Kiwami and then play the rest of the games in numerical order. You can skip games if you must, but it’s not recommended. Each game has its own standalone story, but they’re all connected and the characters grow and change over time. However, it still follows the events of the seven games that precede it and contains some spoilers for earlier Yakuza games.Īnother question that commonly arises is if you can skip Yakuza games. Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a soft reboot for the series and stars a new protagonist, which means you should be able to start there if you want. I suggest you start with Yakuza 0, since Kiwami added content that references it, but either is fine. Yakuza 0 is a prequel to the entire series, while Yakuza Kiwami is a remake of the first game. Ideally you should play Yakuza 0 or Yakuza Kiwami first. So, which Yakuza game should you start with?

#YAKUZA KENZAN ENGLISH MOVIE#

The movie is not based on the upcoming Yakuza: Like a Dragon game. There is also a live-action movie called Like a Dragon, which is an adaptation of the first game in the series due to that being the actual translation of the series title. Yakuza: Like a Dragon is the western title for Yakuza 7, and it is the first game in the series to move away from brawler action RPG combat in favor of turn-based combat. Meanwhile, Yakuza 3-5 were remastered and bundled together as the Yakuza Remastered Collection.Ĭurrently, all of these games are available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, and Yakuza: Like a Dragon now has a PS5 version available as well.

The original Yakuza and Yakuza 2 for the PS2 have been remade as Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza Kiwami 2. The Yakuza game order is actually pretty straightforward, so let’s take a look. In this post, I’ll be answering popular questions like “Which Yakuza game should I start with?”, “Can I start with Yakuza 7?”, “When should I play Dead Souls?”, and “Is Yakuza Ishin ever going to be localized?” (okay, I don’t have an answer for that last one, as much as I wish I did).

There are currently 8 games in the main series, 4 localized spin-offs, and 5 spin-offs exclusive to Japan. Yakuza, or Ryu ga Gotoku (Like a Dragon) as it’s known in Japan, is a long-running brawler/action RPG series featuring intense crime drama storylines, wacky side quests, and a ton of fun mini-games. Questions about the order to play the Yakuza series come up routinely in Yakuza discussions, especially from new fans wondering which Yakuza game to start with.
