About Yakuza 0
Yakuza 0 is the franchise’s origin story, featuring Kiryu and Majima as playable dual protagonists. The two face personal conflicts that intertwine in unexpected, intricate ways. Combat features multiple styles for both characters, as well as separate skill trees that are enhanced via money, which is earned in innumerable quantities.
This prequel is largely regarded as one of the best games in the franchise, boasting countless avenues of side content alongside a gripping narrative that sets the first game’s events into focus. Further, Yakuza 0 arguably gave the franchise prominence in the West, making it a special and memorable game for newer fans.
Yakuza 0 is currently available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
