It looks as if the primary screens for Yakuza 8 have been revealed, however not through official channels. Japanese YouTuber and MMA fighter Mikuru Asakura, who will seem within the sport, not too long ago uploaded a video of his tour by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio.

The primary have a look at Yakuza 8 reveals up to date character designs
The primary Yakuza 8 screens are taken totally out of context, however we will not less than see some slight adjustments to character designs. Ichiban appears to be like probably the most completely different, together with his hair tied again in a ponytail as a substitute of his signature afro.
Nanba’s outfit is much like his hobo put on from Yakuza 7: Like a Dragon. Nonetheless, upon nearer inspection, you’ll be able to see he’s rather more put along with clear garments, designer frames, and a clear shave.
Adachi remains to be rocking his jacket from the primary sport, however he’s wanting rather less grey and more healthy. His expertise with Ichiban clearly had a optimistic impact on him, so he could have transferred again to the common police or opened his personal detective company.
Sadly, these screens don’t give us any clue concerning the sport’s premise. We all know that Yakuza 8 might be a turn-based RPG, and that it’ll happen a number of years after Like a Dragon and proceed that sport’s story. We additionally realized when the sport was introduced that it’ll be set in a “new” city. Whether or not meaning new for Ichiban and firm or new to the sequence stays to be seen.
