December 2021, Tokyo district court. Akihiro Ehara stands accused of groping a woman on a crowded train. A bystander’s video footage of his attempt to flee the scene and subsequent apprehension is all over the news, and public outcry demands a maximum sentence. “Three days ago, a dead body was found in an abandoned building in Yokohama. Have you identified it yet?” he proclaims as confusion cuts through the court room.

Has Ehara gamed the entire justice system? As victims surface and Yagami digs farther into the truth, he is faced with a question: Defend the law, or enact justice? From just a single stumble, one can become a monster…

The graphics and colors were vibrant and alive.
The gameplay was much smoother than the first game, there were tons of elements added to make it feel more like a detective game.
The soundtrack was payed attention to more.
And the story was just another masterpiece from RGG studios. The characters were magnificent! The secondary antagonist and villain of Judgment was way better but the main antagonist and side characters were much much deeper and more complex. I laughed and I cried. Which rarely happens in games for me. Yakuza 0 might have some competition for me now!
