The new protagonist is Ichiban Kasuga, a low ranking member of a low ranking Yakuza family. Kasuga winds up being the fall guy for his family’s captain Jo Sawashiro and winds up in prison for eighteen years only to come out and find he’s been all but forgotten.
The game releases at a time to coincide with the series’ 15th anniversary and as well as a new protagonist the game will take players to the new area of Ijincho in Yokohama. There’s a trailer and screenshots below to get you excited for next year’s launch on PS4.

He's a recovering WoW-holic and when he's not playing games he's talking about games, reading about games, writing about games, watching videos about games, watching his son play games or chatting rubbish on Twitter.
A lover, not a fighter and an all round good guy (he would say that, he wrote this after all), he's happy to be here as part of GIAG.
