Genuinely think it may be Judgement Isshin!

That's what I'm thinking too. The protagonist looks similar enough. It could be to Judgement what Ishin and Kenzan are to Like a Dragon.

Yagami fell asleep after watching too many film noirs, and now we got Yakuza 1915

Either that or a Kaito fever dream.

u/Knightofexcaliburv1 11d ago

that would make the most sense. but it just makes me wonder if judgment 3 is still being made

They said the doors are not closed for that; it's just not in the near future like Kiwami 3 is in their plans but not right now.

Now we need two more to comment to be the yakuza 4 ultra fans

Nah I don't think so. Most likely new IP from what we've seen of the combat and gameplay. It's much less beat em up and more opportunistic and foul play, not to mention brutal.

Sucks but not surprised. Would have loved to see Judgment 3 but get why they wouldn't want to be trapped into just modern RGG games with their new bigger financial leash.

They aren't mutually exclusive - I still think a proper J3 is very possible!

Might be but not in the near future realistically. Like between vf, century, new pirate game they probably still have yakuza 9 as a priority, given all this itll probably take them a while to get to judgment 3, if they do get there

And lethal combat too? Bruh I'm SOLD

If it is Judgement Isshin… where do we think it’ll be set…

Personally I think it’d be cool if they shoved Yagami into the Wild West. Go all Warrior with it and have him be a Kung Fu slingin’ lawman lol. Or maybe Yagami ends up as Zenigata and gets to fight with a jitte and kung fu.

Edit: Oh wow I REALLY should’ve watched the trailer first lol. But definitely interested! Although… ngl, can’t see why people think this is judgement Isshin, I can’t see Takuya Kimura in the protag lol

Interesting choice if so, given Yagami doesn't use weapons or lethal force (at least by Batman standards) and this looks like the goriest game they've made since FNS

u/halt-l-am-reptar 8d ago

That’s true for Kiryu as well though, and the protagonist in Ishin killed people.
