Daring series continuation with solid gameplay and one of the least serious but also most engaging narratives yet.
+ four distinctly compelling protagonists whose stories intertwine nicely
+ most consistently great soundtrack so far
+ fun combat with a simple but effective upgrade system making each level gain noticeable
+ more cinematic cutscenes than before
+ brilliant finale in spite (or because?) of all the silliness
+ significant visual improvements compared to Yakuza 3 (Remastered)
- no interesting new locations or the like
- very shaky writing toward the end
