Yakuza 0
Best Golden Week Steam Sale Games
Original Price: $19.99 – Sale Price: $4.99
The Yakuza series is one of the weirdest, craziest, and most fun franchises that has ever been created. Its games somehow manage to blend intricate gangster stories in with hilarious hijinx seamlessly.
With over 15 titles in the series already, though, dating back to 2005, many wonder what game should they start out with? Yakuza 0 is arguably the best answer.
Yakuza 0 follows Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima, two ex-yakuza veterans trying everything they can to get reinstated into the Tojo Clan. Throughout the story, players switch between each character at predesignated points, experiencing each of their individual stories and getting into plenty of odd predicaments along the way.
Some of those stories include getting a dominatrix to come out of her shell, responding to toilet graffiti, and pretending to be someone’s boyfriend. Throughout each story, Kiryu and Majima will have to answer questions correctly, dance, and even sing karaoke in order to get the right outcome.
Even getting the right outcome usually leads to a fight, letting players experience the multitude of different styles of combat the game offers between both characters. Some situations call for the might of a Slugger, while others need the speed that comes with Rush form. Regardless of your favorite style, combat is a blast.
