Whenever I'm assigned to write news about Yakuza 7 AKA Yakuza: Like a Dragon, I have to double check whatever I'm reading because it's very obvious the developers just keep trying to outdo the ridiculousness of their past games. New information and screenshots released by Sega have revealed more interesting features that will be coming in Yakuza...

So this adventure game from Sega's Yakuza/Ryu Ga Gotoku team is doing alright in terms of reception and sales. It's called Judgment/Judge Eye, and it's about a guy who's solving a mystery and has to wander around Tokyo to get to the bottom of it.
