In the meantime, there haven't been many rumors about what else Bethesda has in store for fans except for the announcement of new Prey DLC, and a Fallout 3 remaster . Details on what this remaster will entail are scarce, but it will apparently be called Fallout 3 Anniversary and is in development for multiple platforms, including the Nintendo Swi
Aside from minor nitpicks, I found myself smiling from ear to ear playing Bug Fables . Yes, it is definitely coasting on a major wave of nostalgia, but it feels fantastic. It absolutely nails the combat, the visual style, and the general tone and vibe of the Paper Mario games. It's a little awkward in places, but that honestly didn't stop me from enjoying this game immens
Those who did stick around to see the credits roll were surprised by just how quickly things wrap up. Liberating the city's districts, which essentially requires a Far Cry-style assault on a military base, didn't take very long, and the whole affair could be sorted in ten to twelve ho
Rise of the Ronin is an open-world action RPG from the developers of Wo Long and the Nioh series. It is set in 1853 during the final years of the Bakumatsu period in Japan. The setting and swordplay will appeal to fans of the Yakuza prequel, Like a Dragon: Ishin . The combat is challenging with a focus on deflections and landing counter stri
Ghost of Tsushima is a stunning samurai adventure that utilizes incredible swordplay and stealth-based combat. It puts players in the shoes of Jin Sakai as he fights to defend the islands of Kiki and Tsushima against a Mongol invasion. Like Rise of the Ronin, the samurai setting will appeal to fans of Like a Dragon: Ishin with its respect for Japanese culture, lore, and Mos Eisley Spaceport the beautiful sett

With Dying Light 2 right around the corner, it's only a given that more and more people would want to get into the first game in the series. Players who choose to do so are making a great decision, since Dying Light is one of the most innovative open-world games around. This title combines parkour and zombie killing into one cohesive pack
Ghostwire: Tokyo is a first-person supernatural action-adventure. It is stylistically different from the Yakuza series. However, those who love exploring a stunning version of Tokyo steeped in culture and lore will find much to love in this title from the creators of The Evil Within. The gameplay and tone are different from Yakuza but equally quirky and unus
Thematically, Devil May Cry has little in common with the Yakuza series. However, where the original Yakuza fighting system is like a throwback to classic Japanese 80s and 90s beat-em-ups, DMCV harks back to the hack-and-slash classics like Golden Axe in a single-player for
One potential surprise is the first footage and details for The Avengers project that was announced last year. Rumors indicate that the project has been retooled to be a reboot of the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games , but fans will have to wait until Square Enix's E3 2018 press conference to be s
For fans of the Fable games, the potential for Microsoft to produce another mainline entry in the series, instead of outings like Fable: The Journey and Fable Legends , is certainly exciting. Bringing back this Xbox-exclusive franchise could be a great move for Xbox, especially as it enters into a new console generation. If Microsoft plays its cards right, Fable could end up being the Breath of the Wild in Xbox's portfo
Out of all the games rumored for Sony's press conference, though, one of the most surprising is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . Microsoft has supported PUBG 's entrance into the console market by pushing it on the Xbox One, going as far as to bundle the game with Xbox One X consoles. It would be surprising to see Microsoft let PUBG slip through its fingers and land on the PS4 storefront, but at E3, anything is possi
Updated April 13, 2024 by Michael Llewellyn: The Yakuza series was originally an action series in the Kiryu saga and became a fully-fledged turn-based JRPG when Ichiban took over as the series protagonist. The series's appeal comes from its depiction of Japanese culture and folklore in a modern-day setting or the historically set Like a Dragon: Ishin. This list has been updated to include more games that fans of the Yakuza series may en
The Yakuza series launched in 2005 to great success in Japan and developed a cult following in the West. Yakuza 0 introduced the series to a more mainstream audience. The games feature semi-open and faithfully recreated Japanese settings in famous Tokyo cities and their seedy underbelly. The first seven games in the series center around Kiryu and are self-contained stories in their own right. The eighth title, Yakuza: Like a Dragon , introduces a new protagonist, Ichiban, with unique motivations and a turn-based combat sys
Rise of the Ronin is similar to the Assassin's Creed series, depicting real-life historical characters woven into the fictional story of the Blade Twins' quest for vengeance. The twins even encounter a character called Ryoma Sakamoto, a real-life Ronin who was the protagonist of Like a Dragon: Ish
