In December of last year, Yakuza 0, Kiwami, and Kiwami 2were removed from Game Passforreasons. ButXGPspotted their listings return to the Xbox Store, which suggested that they’d be free for Game Pass subscribers to download again. And what do you know? Members of the RPS Treehouse have them downloading right this very second.
UPDATE:Microsoft have nowconfirmed July’s Game Pass games, which include all three of these Yakuzas,PowerWash Simulator,Escape Academy,Road 96, heavy-hitter My Friend Peppa Pig and a few others.
And not to mention that Yakuza 0 and Kiwami 2 are arguably two of the best in the series, both a masterclass in how to bundle beefcakes, bicycles, melodrama, and comedy into one emotional package. Now that balance has been restored, you can work through the entire series chronologically - which is what I did over many long summers - and entwine your life with Kiryu and Majima’s. Cor, what a treat.
I wrote about thetypewriter noise in Yakuza games, as an ode to an underrated element of their design. Alan Wen also looked athow the role of women has evolved in the series. And if you needed anymore convincing to play Yakuza 0, ourYakuza 0 reviewis just the ticket.
