Ahead of the Switch 2's launch in June, you can preorder one of the best games in the Yakuza series for the new Nintendo hybrid console. You can grab Yakuza 0: Director's Cut for just $50 to experience a terrific story and bone-breaking action, as well as some new content for this release of the game. It'll be a timed exclusive for Switch 2, so PC and console players will have to wait a while before they can access it.
If you've never played Yakuza 0, then you've missed out on one of the best games that Sega has ever published. Set in 1988 Japan during its financial boom, the game is an origin story for longtime Yakuza characters Kiryu Kazuma and Goro Majima, revealing how they became the legends known as the Dragon of Dojima and the Mad Dog of Shimano, respectively. At its core, Yakuza 0 is a 3D beat-'em-up with a heavy emphasis on storytelling, with major beats in the game playing out like episodes of a gangland drama series.
The game is also packed with diversions, as there are side stories to explore between missions and numerous mini-games to take part in. Kiryu even gets to take part in a side-hustle invests in real estate in Kamurocho, while Goro runs a cabaret club in Sotenbori. Both modes are surprisingly deep, and either one could work well as a standalone game.
Yakuza 0: Director's Cut is one of several Sega-published games that'll be released for the Switch 2. If you managed to snag a preorder for the console and you want to grab some more games, you can also pick up Puyo Puyo Tretris 2S, Sonic X Shadow Generations, and Raidou Remastered.
