    This game has an interesting open world and I did like some of the minigames and side quests. Other than that, this game is garbage. The combat in this game is boring and repetitive. When I pay $60, I expect a combat system with depth and detail. All the developers did in this game is put pretty colorful lights during every move, to give players the illusion that the game is fun.

When I pay $60, I expect a combat system with depth and detail. All the developers did in this game is put pretty colorful lights during every move, to give players the illusion that the game is fun. None of that is fun for me. The physics are beyond horrible. The animations are pathetic. I've seen PS4 titles with way better animations.

    There is no multiplayer. So once you beat the story, there is not a reason to touch this game again. Charging $60 for a game with no replay value is a cashgrab. Not to mention that the story is garbage in this game with bad voice acting. Or at least the English voice acting is bad. I recommend you wait to pick this game up until it is $15.    … Expand

    Truly the worst... Judgment 1 was okay but this is just 100% Lame, Lazy and Cringe!!! Had to force myself to even finish it.
    Japanese drama acting is so cringeworthy I can't even begin to explain it. Storywise it was lame and predictable.
    Also the game looks like a PS3 game with remastered textures. Almost no geometry, environments are extremely square and flat. Actually I've played    Truly the worst... Judgment 1 was okay but this is just 100% Lame, Lazy and Cringe!!! Had to force myself to even finish it.

    Also the game looks like a PS3 game with remastered textures. Almost no geometry, environments are extremely square and flat. Actually I've played PS3 games with a lot more detailed environments, so they didn't even try. NPC models and foremost animations are horrible. The dance students behave like dead fish for example. And there are loads more of these examples through-out the entire game.

    Came here just to say this... I would like my money back cause this shouldn't be allowed to be called a PS5 game. I'll probably give away or try to sell it to someone but it is with a heavy heart I would let someone else experience this garbage.    … Expand

    It's your call but for now it's not recommended.
    1/10 this game at that stage.

    Combact system insuperabile e trama ben scritta e piena di colpi di scena. Una nuova vetta per il brand Yakuza e spin off, sperando che non si faccia morire il brand proprio ora

    Bad story, horrible controls, and even worse graphics make for a terrible experience. Save your money and buy LITERALLY anything else.

    The game overstays its welcome. It tries to incorporate so much variety but really stumbles in the execution. The huge amount of mini games are a chore, especially the robot one... and the 'Amon' fight is downright unfair. And this comes from a 'dark souIs' veteran so no; I am not bad at games. I was not planning to buy this but due to great reviews, this game came under my radar. But IThe game overstays its welcome.

    **** stealth missions with 1 detection game over mechanic, broken movement and broken take down input.
    Same chimpira scum punks 1 hit-game-over you in the "stealth missions" while you can wipe hundreds of them in the town without breaking a sweat.

    Also the dice n cube game sucks more than the retro arcade games.

    The slightly mixed quality is only a slight blight on Lost Judgment's otherwise stellar quality. It oozes style and has content that will keep players playing for potentially hundreds of hours. The story is a masterpiece of twists and turns, highlighting many issues within society. If the original game is the marker, this meets it with pride. An excellent crime thriller action game with lots of comedy and referential moments that make this one to remember.

    Lost Judgment is a great addition to the Yakuza franchise. It's a Japanese action thriller with awesome narrative, interesting themes and wonderful locations. The game offers entertaining fighting and detective mechanics that are characteristic for the Sega series.

    Lost Judgment represents the unexpected return of detective/brawler Yagami and company in an even more exciting adventure that brings everything we loved in the previous instalments, and much more. Peak old-school Yakuza-like experience for those who love the more active approach to this genre.
