The game perfectly maintains the Yakuza essence despite the change of era
It shows that a technical effort was made to recover what was a very secondary delivery.
The gameplay is a breath of fresh air, and the theme of katanas and guns is very cool.
Meeting the usual characters in a totally different way is something special

Incredible sense of time and place established via its great setting

A more serious statement that works very well...
A real scriptwriting ambition and characters as strong as in the canonical opuses
Fights that do not lack pep and depth

The typical era perfectly transcribed and immersive
A wait of nearly ten years that leaves no one hungry

Immersive atmosphere The end of the Shogunate told with the characters of Yakuza Four very different fighting styles A game full of activities Quality of French subtitles
An unbalanced game The redundancy of the back and forth Animations very rigid Technically dated Clipping quite shameful A lot of bugs anyway It?s a remaster, not a remake

GameOver
A rich and well-written history, rooted in one of the most fascinating historical periods and events in Japanese history.
Exquisite Japanese dubbing - as in all titles in the series, after all.
Interesting mix of sword game in combat mechanics.
the use of the Unreal Engine shows that Sega now leaves behind the aging Dragon Engine...

... But a lot of glitches, instabilities and rigid animations show that they still have a long way to go before they learn to work properly.
Improper insertion of a revolver into combat mechanisms.
No attempt to improve the flaws of the original title.
Half of the side quests (and bets) are unfortunately fillings of the worst type.
Poorly designed crafting system based on grinding.
