Critic Reviews
Yakuza 0 Review - PS4
A wondrous melting pot of Japanese cultural excess distilled into a relentlessly compelling synergy of RPG and action elements, Yakuza 0 arguably represents the consummate entry point for newcomers to the series. Without a doubt, Yakuza 0 is a masterpiece and the first must-have title of the year.

"Beyond the era and location-specific authenticity strived for and achieved in this title, both the dated combat and graphics leave something to be desired."
70%Yakuza 0 review: "The best and most accessible story in the series yet"
While a bit disappointing on the mini-game front, Yakuza 0 remains as strange and charming as ever, with the best story and combat the series has seen in years.
