Backlog Resolution: Yakuza 0 Chapter 9 (Part 1)
1Back to Kiryu's side of the story, and there is an actual shift in the enemies in the streets. Honestly glad to see the random encounters getting a bit harder now, with Dojima grunts armed with weapons as they attack us in broad daylight. Yeah, that feels oddly realistic considering how organized crime and police tend to interact in most major countries. This is actually a really short chapter if you don't do any substories or side quests.
Yakuza 0 is the 11th game in the "Like A Dragon" series, and the 6th mainline release. A prequel RPG set in 1988, the open-world game puts players in the shoes of two of the franchise's most famous figures: Kazama Kiryu and Goro Majima. Published by Sega in 2015, Yakuza 0 is credited for bringing the series out of obscurity in the US and Europe, pushing "Like a Dragon" into a new era of international popularity.
