New Yakuza Title To Be Announced On September 27 – Could It Be Judgment 2?

The next Yakuza title will be announced during the Sega Nama broadcast during Tokyo Game Show 2020 Online on September 27 at 20:00 JST, according to co-host Ayana Tsubaki via the miracle of twitter. The tweet has since been deleted, but Gematsu very swiftly archived the cached version here.

In terms of just what that new Yakuza title could be, there are certainly a number of viable possibilities.

While another direct sequel seems a little soon given that Yakuza: Like A Dragon hasn’t even been released in Japanese territories for that long, it’s entirely possible that we could get the next instalment of Judgment – the very well-received spin-off to the mainline Yakuza series. You can catch our fawning review of Judgment here.

Beyond that, another prequel in the vein of Yakuza 0 isn’t off the cards either, but ultimately we would certainly be surprised to see Sega trotting out another direct sequel quite so soon.

Oh and a western localization of the Feudal Japan set Yakuza Ishin wouldn’t go amiss either. Just sayin’.

Meanwhile, the western release of Yakuza: Like A Dragon is set for November 13 on PS4, with the PS5 version due to follow shortly after.
