Yakuza Kiwami 2
Throughout the Yakuza series, Kiryu is pretty well-known to avoid romantic entanglements, whether due to his own choice or an outright obliviousness. One notable exception was Yakuza 2, and now retained in Yakuza Kiwami 2, as Kiryu gets to know the hard-nosed detective Kaoru Sayama. That relationship is the focal point of the new trailer for Kiwami 2, which you can find below.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a full remake of Yakuza 2, originally released in 2006 in Japan and 2008 in America on the PlayStation 2. The game is completely remade in Yakuza 6's Dragon engine and has extra Majima content not present in the original release.
You can pick up Kiwami 2 next month on August 28 on the PlayStation 4. A demo is available now on PSN.
