Here's a Look at the Bone-Crunching Combat of Yakuza 0 on PS4

Brutally beautiful

by Robert Ramsey Thu 15th Dec 2016

You don't know the joy of the Yakuza games until you've pulled off one of Kazuma Kiryu's disgustingly bad ass heat moves. Fortunately, SEGA's released a new trailer for Yakuza 0, which is full of the things. Watching them isn't quite as satisfying as actually using them, but you'll at least get a sense for the brutality that they bring. Ouch.

Yakuza 0 is out next month on PlayStation 4, but will you be buying it? Make it rain in the comments section below.

Robert (or Rob if you're lazy) has been a fan of PlayStation since the 90s, when Tekken 2 introduced him to the incredible world of video games. He still takes his fighting games seriously, but RPGs are his true passion. The Witcher, Dragon Quest, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, he's played 'em all — a little too much, some might say.

I remember when I was younger playing a demo for Yakuza and not really caring for it. I think its time to give it another go. Especially since how much praise it seems to get from fellow Pushsquare readers.

Already preordered the business edition. The nice things about games launching in japan first is you can read the review and see fan reaction, so by the time the game launch in the west we already know if the game is good or not. No more waiting for review embargo, we can just preodered it safely.

This and persona 5 is safe to preorder

@wiiware nice picks right there! I will be delving into p4g later on tonight, therefore I will have a better idea if persona is for me. Then I can join you on the hype train.

I've never played Yakuza as I didn't own a PS3 for my sins. But this one looks pretty neat.

I only ever got to play the zombie game on ps3, pretty sucky. I'd like the Gerard Butler in Olympus has Fallen fighting style, which is beating down everyone with ease and stabbing them in the head.
