One of the weaker games in the franchise. The transition to the dragon engine was huge step up in the franchise, seamless transitions into building is great. Gameplay combat suffered, needed more polishing. Story is good, not a fan of the fully voicing the substories. Still worth playing nonetheless.

Best yakuza game in terms of consistent storyline, all rounded gameplay, characters, minigames and sidequests. Side stories are fine, but a downgrade from 5.
