Description

Judgment is an action-adventure game played from a third-person perspective. The game is a legal thriller set in the Yakuza world of Kamurocho and follows private detective Takayuki Yagami as he investigates a serial murder case. It stars Japanese actor Takuya Kimura and employs a fighting system similar to that of Yakuza 0 where players can change into different styles, namely crane-style which is more focused on fighting groups and tiger-style which is more focused on fighting individuals.

Additionally, the game features an investigation mode where the player must find traces of the criminal. When asked about similarities regarding both franchises, Yakuza creator Toshihiro Nagoshi stated that “location and assets might be the same, but the gameplay and story here are drastically different”.
