The reviewer didn't go much into the technical aspect of this remaster for some reason, the main point of "remasters" are the visual and performance upgrades hence the term, the lighting has been improved, different color grading as compared to the warmer color from the original, is it 4k? Is it consistently 60fps?
Because not everyone cares about that shallow crap. If it’s the same experience with better makeup, then what’s the point? Plus those types of improvements are pretty standard that there’s not much of a point in mentioning them
Been playing it again on the PS5, it already runs at 60fps and the graphics are cel shaded, curious what you feel needs remastering? And if they did do it for FotnS I would REALLY love if they reworked the club management game so it’s as good as the one in Yakuza Kiwami 2!
I own all the yakuza games on my PS4 and before you ask yes i would buy every last one if they got released on the PS5 as the yakuza games are fun and they have great storys to boot and after playing garbage games like anthem we all need to relax and play a game that is going to deliver what it promises
I wouldn't mind if there was a small charge for the upgrade, like the $10 that Wreckfest and THPS 1&2 are doing, but I'm not paying $40 for a game I already own. I'll wait for it to go on sale.
Such a great game and truly an amazing addition to the Yakuza series! Did not expect to enjoy it as much as I did since I've played a few in the series already and thought it would just be business as usual. But, being a detective really puts a new spin on it and Yagami is a great protagonist. Probably my third fav game in there series so far.
Honestly good decision. Even tho it's a spinoff it gives you a look into what all the other yakuza games are like (except 7) even tho this comment is 3 weeks old im sure you know yakuza 0-6 don't have a English dub so be prepared to read.
Gameplay runs at 60fps, afaik. A review with no 60fps video option makes it a disservice, frankly. And while Judgment on base PS4 runs at 1080p 30fps with drops, at least on base PS4, 4k60 is a hell of an upgrade.
After playing and loving Like a Dragon, I mite give upgraded Judgment a go. It was nice to be back in the Yakuza world without having to read subtitles.
Remember tho this is a brawler....Not turned based as , Like A Dragon ,which I liked but prefer the old fighting style much more.....If you liked the Like A Dragon then I believe you will like this....Have the ps4 and ps5 version of Judgement and I can honestly say the Ps5 version is the best ....60fps which guves it a much smoother gameplay is a no brainer with sharper graphics....Kind of liked the filtered version on the ps4 version but I prefer the realism on the ps5 then on ps4 anytime and any day for the 4k 60fps....Very unique side content compared to Like a Daragon.... Judgement only takes place in one setting compared to the multiple settings like, Like A Dragon....This has a La Noir Vibe to it.....I played all the Yakuza games if you do like this then I suggest getting Yakuza 0 next....
How can I play in PS5 version remastered? I don’t wanna play over again, I wanna transfer the dave data. Will you please explain how to transfer the save data? Thanks.
I love Yakuza series. And in this spinoff the story is really good but thats the first time i despise the combat system. If this was the first game of the series i play i would definitely drop it because i HATE the combat.
I got all my games since 2015 on digital, I don't like the hassle of put in and out disc, plus I travel a lot with my console and it feels practical to delete and install games I wanted to play/replay. And I love the minimalist look on my rooms/houses without game cover everywhere. But that's my opinion.
@@Irraptured Yeah same here I'm thrilled af but I really hope they announce a PC version soon. I had alot of fps issues with the first game on my PS4 while my PC maxed out Yakuza 7 with no problem at all, I really hope Judgment gets a PC version alongside the sequel as well.
The game is awesome and i would replay the story on PS5 but I'm not going to pay for it again, they should make an upgrade from the PS4 version, even a paid one is better than rebuying the whole game :/ Also no save transfer, imagine doing 100% KamuroGo again :s
Can someone explain to me how GamingBolt gave Judgment a 9/10 when the game first came out, and the remastered version an 8/10. Anybody?!?!! Let me explain if you not already informed on this practice. When you see great games get terrible reviews, it's not because the game was underwhelming it's because the person writing up the review sometimes have to review game genres that they wouldn't spend their money on.

Hey, I'm never play yakuza ever, but everyone said the story is top notch (and it is) i played yeah it's worth it for the story alone, it's about lawyers x mystery x detective stuff. Although the fighting is meh, for me at least.
Stadia has this bad boy for $10!! Hell yeah I’ll take 4K 60 for $10! 😂 although I do own the original on PS4 I think $10 is a super fair price for this upgrade now.
I see they only animated the mouths. No facial expressions. I don't know about this game. It looks intriguing, but still seems a cheaper version of Sleeping Dogs...
The graphics are really cool, but I don’t think they utilised the DualSense’s capabilities enough. For example, they could have used the haptic feedback so the player could feel each footstep you take.

This is one of the best Yakuza games. It's great. (I know it's not yakuza but it's in the same family)

If it looks like a Yakuza, and plays like a Yakuza, it's a Yakuza.
the remasted game is really cheap at 10 usd in my country...i'll play this after i finish lost judgement, i really like these drama/mystery game
