Pros & Considerations
Combat
Four Kiryu styles preserve the stance-switching variety introduced in Yakuza 0
World
Kamurocho packs substories, minigames and progression into a compact district rather than a large but sparse map
◇Consider
Boss design: Several fights retain older design ideas and can rely heavily on repeated blocking or healing phases
Reuse: Players coming directly from Yakuza 0 will revisit many locations and systems with fewer mechanical surprises.
