The latest "Yakuza (Ryu ga Gotoku)" game changes the game genre to RPG.
The series' passionate human drama is retained, while the main character, setting, and game system have all been revamped.
This game is an innovative evolution of the series with a live command RPG battle that combines fight action and RPG command battles.
The game challenged a new genre: dramatic RPG.
The game received the award because the game met expectations of series fans, who said “I was impressed” and “cried.”
“Yakuza7: Like a Dragon” is the latest dramatic RPG in the “Yakuza” series. The new main character, Ichiban Kasuga, joins his friends in the new setting of the “Yokohama district of Isezaki Ijincho” and experiences the passionate human drama of how he becomes a man of honor and defeats a great evil.
This latest numbers game has evolved in a volume and innovation worthy of the latest numbering game such as a setting of an unprecedented scale and a new battle system that combines fight actions and the RPG command selection system developed in “Yakuza” series.
We are so glad to receive the Award for Excellence.
Fortunately, 15 years have passed since the first release of Yakuza series and the series has become a title that continues to be loved by people.
We would like to thank our fans for their support, which has made it possible for us to continue this far. By the way, this Yakuza 7 was the biggest challenge in the series.
To be honest, the decision to change the main character and the radical change of the game system itself kept on worrying me to the very end, and staffs were remarkably anxious and troubled.
However, challenges are indispensable for Yakuza series, and this game was the result of prioritizing the policy of “surprise" that is the dearest to us.
Receiving this award has given us courage once again. The challenge that began 15 years ago will continue.
Thank you!
