We learnt that this remake will also have re-recorded dialogue and some remade cutscenes. By comparison, everything else feels pretty minor, but there are of course some changes to the minigames, the substories, and naturally, the localization.

The biggest and most obvious change is that this game is made in the studio’s Dragon Engine, so everything about the visuals, the battle system, and the experience system is completely revamped. What are some of the major changes that this remake brings? Secondly, Majima Construction is hanging out in West Park, and you can play a completely revamped clan creator minigame from Yakuza 6: The Song of Life to defend Majima’s build site from a bunch of wrestlers, and last but not least, we’ve got the Majima Saga, three brand new chapters featuring Majima that take place between Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza Kiwami 2. For one, the cabaret club storyline we last saw in Yakuza 0 picks up 18 years later, this time with Kiryu in the manager’s role. We didn’t put Majima Everywhere back in, but we’ve certainly added a whole bunch of a new content that branches out from the main story, just like it. Will we be seeing such changes from the original with Yakuza Kiwami 2 as well? With Yakuza Kiwami, we got the new ‘Majima Everywhere’ feature. "The biggest and most obvious change is that this game is made in the studio’s Dragon Engine, so everything about the visuals, the battle system, and the experience system is completely revamped" To learn more about these changes and the game’s development, Gamingbolt reached out to the developers and most of the questions were answered by Localization Producer Scott Strichart except for one which was answered by SEGA’s Senior PR Manager Jacob Nahin.

Quite a bit will be different from this game including improved visuals and some gameplay changes.
