More dragon-engine jank. Wack leveling system. a Majima story no one asked for. decent retelling of Y2's mid story. a fire final boss theme.
Play the PS2 version.

Buono, ma non eccelso.
Good.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a wild ride from start to finish! The story is classic Japanese crime drama – betrayal, revenge, the whole shebang. The combat is super satisfying, letting you clobber dudes with bikes and unleash crazy heat moves. Throw in wacky side activities like karaoke, managing a hostess club, and an arcade full of Sega classics, and you've got a game overflowing with stuff to do. It can feel a bit dated in some parts, and the tone swings from serious to goofy in a heartbeat, but if you want over-the-top action and a taste of Japan, Kiwami 2 delivers.
