Yakuza Kiwami (龍が如く極, Ryū ga Gotoku: Kiwami, lit. "Like a Dragon: Extreme") is a remake of the original 2005 Yakuza. While the main story is largely the same, the new features of Yakuza Kiwami include: the graphics, engine and combat system of Yakuza 0; rerecorded voice acting; and new story elements not present in the original Yakuza, most prominently flashback scenes that chronicle the main antagonist's descent into darkness. Because of how the game runs on Yakuza 0's engine and makes much reference to it (unlike the original Yakuza), Yakuza Kiwami can be seen as a sequel to Yakuza 0.
The game was released on January 21, 2016, in Japan and worldwide as Yakuza Kiwami on August 29, 2017. The game was released on the PC via Steam on the 19th of February 2019. The game was released on Xbox One on April 21, 2020. The disc version can be purchased in either a Standard or Steelbook Edition, which is only available in Western regions. The Western versions of the game do not have an English dub, unlike the original Yakuza.
