The Yakuza series is coming back in a big way. Yakuza 8 was announced last month, and the first screenshots of the game have just been released by Famitsu. The screenshots show off the new town that will be featured in the game, as well as protagonist Ichiban with his hair tied back instead of in an afro. This is the first time we’ve seen any gameplay or story elements from Yakuza 8, so it’s sure to get fans of the series excited!
