A localization patch is worth 10 yuan? Then should all previous players of Yakuza 0/1/2 get 10 yuan compensation per game?

Dec 11, 2025Same review is being posted on both the new Kiwami and Kiwami 2 listings. I love Yakuza with a passion. I jumped into the series back in 2020. Best decision I made during my long covid shut-in. I love the virtual tourism that the game series offers. I love the characters and their stories.

Dec 12, 2025So they delisted the original and made this version the only purchasable one, so lets go over the incredible updates they added to warrant such a drastic decision to delist it.

You are paying $2 for literally additional languages and thats [i]it[/i]. You aren't getting anything new from this. No bug patches, no upgraded visuals from the original Kiwami, nothing. It's [i]only[/i] new languages. This could've been an update to the original, but nope. The only way I would recommend this is if you don't already have Kiwami 1. Kiwami 2 got the…
