I needed this since zero kiwami 1 and 2 came out on game pass I started playing them in order and I'm loving the series but was confused with this one after zero
I started yakuza kiwami yesterday on hard mode and oh god i was underprepered for boss fight at funeral, it took me almost 1.5 hour to beat that bastard...
Nice literally this is my first Yakuza game and I'm literally at the last mission and I needed to know how to sell the plates and nobody said it except you so you deserve more subs keep up the good job👍
Latecomer to the series - did zero last year and am most of the way through Kiwami 1, plan to play through all of them steadily with a couple of other games in between each. Really enjoyed this video. One thing I would add to your comments on the skill trees is that I personally would recommend players pick up the "essence of...." skills in the soul menu I think it is, relatively early on. They don't cost too many experience points in the grand scheme of things, and not only are they cool in themselves when you use them, I *think* it's them that stop some of the bosses recuperating health if you can use them in time. And especially early on in the game when Kiryu is under developed (and a couple of the fights can be tough as it is) that can be a bit of a pain to deal with.
Tbh, i needed this, i started kiwami asmy first yakuza game cuz it was one of 4 yakuza games on ps plus, and this was the oldest one of them so i started with it
I started with Yakuza Kiwami cause I wanted it in Chronological order as I heard someone say that the feeling of seeing them young after knowing their experience all the previous entries, I will probably play Yakuza 0 after I play till 5
@@Justachamp772 I haven't actually completed 5 and 6, so I can't comment in terms of which callbacks are present - but I do know that zero was released in 2015 before 6 in 2016, so after 5 isn't a bad idea.
Hey you should put the trick on the majima fight were you get the marlin cannon and use it to easily defeat majima and get an 100 level boost on the beggining
How do you use the unorthodox objects, like the modified lighter or the slime spray, on the PC version? Everywhere on the internet, people only ever explain it with the controller, and I'm on mouse and keyboard. The game doesn't tell you. I've tried using them as Heat actions, regular attacks, combination attacks... nothing seems to work. Do you know? Any help on this would be appreciated. I played through all of Yakuza 0 without figuring it out, now I'm on Kiwami, and I'm playing through the whole Yakuza series for the first time, so... kinda noob over here. :)
Just finished up Yakuza 0 and am about to finish up Cabaret Club Czar, then I plan to start Kiwami. This was a great video, short and to the point, and I’m glad I didn’t get a full run-down of the stuff I already knew from Y0 like the fighting styles themselves, great video! (Also, is there anything that I absolutely must do in Yakuza 0 post-ending before I start Kiwami?)
Since you're already wrapping up Club Czar, the only other things I can think of is finishing the Real Estate Royale campaign, as there is also fun content locked behind it, and other side stories like the dance-off campaign for Kiryu and Majima. These are things that people sometimes complete 0 without ever knowing about.
@@ChillKaijuClan Ah yeah! Finished up Real Estate Royale and got the gold Kiryu statue and I’m considering that my final send off now that I have both Legend fighting styles, so I’d say that I’m good to start Kiwami since I’ve done all the necessary story stuff. I’ll probably go back sometime and do things like complete Pocket Circuit and such, but yeah.
oi mate, im sorry to bother you with this, im starting this and all yakuza games and so far ive seen that from time to time i get the sound of a drum at certain points while walking, what does that sound means?
Nah, you're fine. You can come back to zero later, as it is a prequel. It's not mandatory to play it first and no small number of people suggest Kiwami as the best place to start. It's a remake of the original Yakuza title on the PS2. I usually recommend zero to people because it keeps them invested until the end and gives them the desire to play all the games. But there is a chance you might even enjoy zero more playing through to Yakuza 5 first.
Yeah, I have heard of a way. There's an item you can unlock with completion points called Mr. Shakedown's Big Pockets. Apparently, the play is to deliberately lose your money to him at first, reload the world and heal up, get heat up, use some weapons kick the tar out of him. You're supposed to get 50% more money on top of what you lost. Wear your "lucky binding" when you do it. I hear that he just gets harder and harder after the first time you do this. I haven't tried it though, so attempt at your own risk.
How do i level my health? i upgraded everything i completed the game with the tiny healthbar from the start.. it wouldn't let me level my health so now i'm curious, could i have a response please?
I'm not sure what you mean when you say it wouldn't let you level your health. The Body Tree is where all the upgrades to maximum health are. If you have purchased everything in this tree, you would have the most health possible, as far as I know.
@@ChillKaijuClan i don't use twitter, i guess i could try recover my old one from when i was a kid lol hovering over them it just wouldn't let me upgrade them i got like 4 of them (think i still have a save so i can try)
@@ChillKaijuClan Hey thought i'd let you know, i actually didn't realise you had to upgrade them in a weird motion turns out i'm an idiot lol, i completed the game but it was a lot more difficult with a lvl 1 health bar hahah!
@Greek Goddess Man, you can play it as you want, but I'll recommend playing Yakuza 0 first, it's a better game, and yes, there are some characters that appear in the other titles, but some are worth knowing here than in their respective games, like nishiki, which I think, is the main reason to play 0 first, and also, there are some characters that are introduced in 0, like pocket fighter, that you won't know their relationship with Kiryu if you dont play 0 first.
You only need to complete the main story once to use the other unlocked outfits. But I wouldn't call completing the story = beating the game, as there are still 100s of hours of stuff to do. After completing the main campaign, you have the option to start Premium Adventure mode which picks up where you left off. You can then access and complete all unfinished content and you don't need to do the main story again.
Definitely might try the subtitles/closed-captions when you're having trouble making things out. I believe I created a subtitle file, so all the captions should be accurate. This is one of the first videos I ever made, so the quality is still very rough around the edges.

@@ragnaros7889 I dont get how their health restores during the fight.
@@walkforgiven yakuza 0 came out after yakuza 1 / kiwami but it plays before them so yakuza 0 is where yakuza starts story based
@ragnaros7889 wtf? My first yakuza game was 7 and I started kiwami yesterday. That bald mf took me one try to beat on hard mode too 😂
@@Cbas619you have to rush them when they start doing that
Thank you. I was wondering why I couldnt find majima anywhere.
Glad I could help. Having him disappear was very confusing.
I won’t lie, Rumi’s inability to be open minded about listening to all kinds of music infuriates me.

4:59 how dare you talk about the dating without talking about goromi
Started like a dragon like 2 weeks ago and am loving the game so far. Now I'm gonna go back and play all the games when I'm done with 8

Thanks for the feedback and the tip! I agree that the self-healing bosses in this game can be pretty frustrating!

Not a bad title to start with. Enjoy!
Thank you my guy, you earned my sub. I'm playing the ps4 version but I think all of these tips carry over. ❤️
Oooo I'll need this for when I start the game!
Just finished up yakuza 0 and gonna start kiwami soon thank you for the guide!
Gonna buy both games kiwami 1 and 2 so excited they on sale
Super well made guide! Well done!
I needed this video, well done!
Finally someone who said how to use weapons. Thank you so much!!!!!
Video was great ,love the music and you didn’t over explain anything ☝️I’ll sub just make more content on yakuza or other fighting games
Good video very informing and covered alot of topics thank you for the guide.
Playing this I remembered something. I suck at games like this because I suck at memorizing combos and commands. All I know is button mashing.
I started with Yakuza Kiwami cause I wanted it in Chronological order as I heard someone say that the feeling of seeing them young after knowing their experience all the previous entries, I will probably play Yakuza 0 after I play till 5
It's a plan! Zero is one of the best, according to popular opinion, so you can save the best for last.
@@ChillKaijuClan should I play it after 5 or 6?

Thanks for watching. I plan to have beginner's guides on the channel for every game in the series, eventually.
Can't remember the last time I watched a video in 480p
Yeah, sorry about that, this was the first video I ever made. Quality improvements were made though, as time went on.
thanks
Got 100% at kiwami 2 but good god is it hard for kiwami to get that, im now at 90% and it keeps getting harder because of these shitty minigames!!!!
oi mate, im sorry to bother you with this, im starting this and all yakuza games and so far ive seen that from time to time i get the sound of a drum at certain points while walking, what does that sound means?
It just means you're near the main mission objective.
Nice
I started with Kiwami
Did you play Zero after? What were some of your thoughts?
@@ChillKaijuClan I played 0 first but I played only for a lil than I started playing kiwami to try it out.
how did you get a different suit i can only wear the grey one
You have to complete the story first before you can change outfits at your hideout in Serena.
Oh no, I didn’t complete Yakuza 0. Was I supposed to?
Nah, you're fine. You can come back to zero later, as it is a prequel. It's not mandatory to play it first and no small number of people suggest Kiwami as the best place to start. It's a remake of the original Yakuza title on the PS2.

My version of Kiryu is packing heat with majimas dead souls gun
This is my first yakuza game n it's so confusing. Maybe I'm just not made out for these types of games
You should also try yakuza 0, its the prequel of this game, and also it explains the others fighting styles better.

Where the hell are the gambling stuffs😂
It says it at 01:46. You acquire the gambling cheat items using keys you've collected around the map at the coin lockers.
