What is Yakuza 4?
Yakuza 4 is a video game developed and released by Sega for the PlayStation 3. The game was introduced on July 24, 2009.
A promotional video was presented at the 2009 Tokyo Game Show, and a preview of the main plot was released on January 13, 2010. The sequel to Yakuza 3, it was released on March 18, 2010 in Japan after a playable demo was released on the Japanese PlayStation Store on March 5. Yakuza 4 was released in Europe and North America in March 2011.
Like the original game, most of the action takes place in Kamurocho (resembling Shinjuku's red-light district, Kabukichō). Three locations have been added since Yakuza 3: a rooftop area stretching across a large portion of the town), the back streets of Kamurocho (known as Rojiura) and a third area known as the underground (or "chika", which includes the city's sewers, parking lot and shopping arcades). The underground area is also known as Kamuchika, short for Kamuro Chika (Kamuro underground).
Yakuza 4 has three new protagonists in addition to Kazuma Kiryu, the main character since the original Yakuza game: Masayoshi Tanimura (Hiroki Narimiya), Shun Akiyama (Kōichi Yamadera) and Taiga Saejima (Rikiya Koyama).
Other new characters include Junji Sugiuchi (Kenichi Endou), a Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department detective; Hiroaki Arai (Ikki Sawamura), a Tojo Clan yakuza; Seishirō Munakata (Kinya Kitaoji), a high-ranking police officer and a woman, Lily (Maju Ozawa). Returning characters are Haruka Sawamura, Goro Majima, Makoto Date, Daigo Dojima and Goh Hamazaki.
Available mini-games are pachinko, fishing, onsen, table tennis, hanafuda and karaoke, including duets with non-player characters (NPCs). In Haruka's Wish, the player must raise Haruka's trust level. Each main character has a side game or goal which must be completed, and many side games are related to trophies.
Akiyama may create friendship with some NPCs by buying them items, or with some storekeepers by being a regular customer. His other mission, Create a #1 Hostess!, is to scout girls for the cabaret he owns. A girl is improved by dressing her up and training her.
After she becomes number one, the player can choose a final outfit for her and she will appear at the cabaret. A similar challenge in the Japanese version of Yakuza 3 was cut from overseas versions.
Saejima's mission, Create a Fighter! is to train fighters to win tournaments after 50 rounds or less of training (building up movesets). Different movesets allow different moves to be performed.
Tanimura's mission, Resolving Police-Radio Disputes, is to keep the peace on the streets of Kamurocho. Radio reports tell him where to find incident, and the player must defeat the perpetrator.
In Kiryu's mission, Team Encounter Battle, seven gangs attack him and he must fight to reach each gang leader. Each character has his own style of fighting and special moves.
