Lol. Lmao even.

Gaiden is just a small game that'll bridge the gap between 7 and 8. And 8 is gonna have 2 protagonists. Kiryu and Kasuga. Also, no prizes for guessing what kinda combat system 8 is gonna have.

Gaiden is a side-game to fill in the blanks for Kiryu because they decided to not completely remove him from the series after all. It plays between 6 and 7.

It also costs less than "main" titles, so yeah, turn based is here to stay and that's a good thing. Like a Dragon was the best of the series.

Yes, that's Kiryu next to Kasuga. Yokoyama has already confirmed that 8 will have turn-based combat. I have no idea what you're talking about, Dante?

What turn based combat did you see in Yakuza: Gaiden ? Thats was real time combat.

Gaiden will have real time combat. The main games will keep turn-based.

That guy on the left in the end of the trailer is supposed to be Kazuma Kiryu ?? Well, modders will be up all night and fix that, I can tell you that. Because they replaced the clown in this game with Kazuma Kiryu too. As simple as I can tell it: You simply DONT replace Kazuma Kiryu with nobody else! I bet Yakuza gaiden will outsell Yakuza 8 too. Especially on consoles.

Yes. That is Kiryu. Like, obviously. If you like him so much how come you can't recognize him just because he grew his hair out a bit?

Have you seen this game on PC heavily modded ? Sure looks like clown has replaced with Kazuma Kiryu and real time combat. Some outdated turn based combat was even dissed by Final Fantasy in the end.
I have not. Feel free to mod the game however you please.

He'll be 55 in Yakuza 8.

He's getting old. His hair went grey. It happens.

For someone who's such a supposed fan, you don't seem to know much about him.

Kiryu was born in 1968.

So what you're saying is you've never actually played any of the games.

Wrong, played them all. This one included when they managed to replace the clown with Kazuma Kiryu and replace turn based combat with real time combat.
Well, then you never actually read anything or paid attention to the plot.

Which, for someone who claims to be a fan is pretty pathetic.

If that were true you wouldn't call Kiryu's age "fan fiction".

Congrats, you played yourself.

The OP still seems to be using Internet Explorer if it took him nine months to realize that Gaiden has real time combat.

After 6 you’d think they’d move on. But they brought him back in 7 granted as a boss only to bring him back in 8. Smh I like Kiryu but he’s got 7 now 8 games to him. I thought the point of ichiban is he was the new lead.

Perhaps fans of the series dont like new clown looking guy and wants Kazuma Kiryu back ? Why else do you think they made Yakuza: Gaiden ?!
Itchiban is a solid protagonist gaiden is to explain why he’s there in 6. I can only hope it wrap up his character he’s really old at this point.
