About
Just as Kazuma, a former rising star in the Yakuza, emerges from prison after a murder cover-up, 10 billion yen vanishes from the Yakuza vault, forcing him once again into their brutal, lawless world. A mysterious young girl will lead Kazuma to the answers if he can keep her alive.
What players say
A gritty, cinematic crime drama set in the dense neon labyrinth of Kamurocho, telling a melodramatic redemption-and-conspiracy story that felt strikingly true to Japan's underworld for its time. Praised as a landmark that launched a beloved series.
