One of two timeframes I’d like to see a Yakuza-esque game in, the other being the 50’s post-war Japan.
A Yakuza game set during the Meiji Restoration would slap.
I was gonna say Ishin is that… but its set in the era immediately prior, the Bakumatsu
Cool, I’ll check this out! I assumed that since it was branded as ‘like a dragon’, it had the turn-based combat style, but it doesn’t, which I think is good. Turn based combat in Yakuza doesn’t look very fun so I’ve been avoiding those titles.
Post-Meiji is an interesting time period. I don’t know how much media with Western localization there is in this setting. Even The Last Samurai was early Meiji.
Wait… they’re making this and the new Virtua Fighter?
Go ahead and give them the Sonic franchise while you’re at it.
