Yakuza Series April Fool Joke Involves Ichiban Kasuga In An RPG Battle

Sega has revealed a video of Ichiban Kasuga in a Yakuza game that uses turn-based battles instead of action battles.

The video itself is likely an April Fool’s Day joke from Ryu ga Gotoku Studio, but with the amount of effort seen in the video, it could be related to a Play Spot or side mode in the upcoming Yakuza game. In a funny note, Ichiban Kasuga is using the Hero style of combat.

Check out the video below:

Producer Toshihiro Nagoshi has commented on changing the gameplay of the series accompanying the new protagonist, and you can read more in our previous report here.

The new Yakuza game is in development for PlayStation 4.
