PS Plus Premium’s August update is good, bad, and ugly

August 12, 2022VG247

Yes, we’ve got Yakuza. And one of the more recent open world Ubisoft shooters. But we’re also – once again – missing out on the classics. Earlier this week, we heard about the next batch of games coming to bulk out the PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium tiers on Sony’s newly dressed-up subscription service. At first glance, it’s not a bad offering – for owners of PS Plus Extra, you’ll be able to pick up three different Yakuza titles (including the best one, Yakuza 0) – but beyond that, there are some glaring issues with this month’s rollout. Sure, these…

Yakuza 0, Kiwami, and Kiwami 2 are back on Game Pass, and there’s never been a better time to start the series

July 6, 2022VG247

Yakuza is now a mainstream game – and one of the most successful IPs Sega owns. There’s no better time to try it out. Despite starting on the mean streets of Tokyo in the 90s, Yakuza has become a sensation all around the world over the past few years. The series is as popular as a boozy Friday night down your local karaoke joint. It’s as touching as a heart-to-heart with your best mate, over the beaten body of a double-crossing crime boss. It’s got as much cinematic clout as anything Martin Scorsese has crapped out over the past few…

Yakuza 0, Kiwami 1 & Kiwami 2 are back on Game Pass and balance has been restored

July 5, 2022RockPaperShotgun

In the dead of night I’ve been hearing things. At first, I thought it was the neighbours next door enjoying a bit of karaoke. Maybe some twigs banging off a discarded Tesco trolley, creating a beautiful tune. No, I’m convinced it was the dulcet tones of Kiryu singing “Dame da ne dame yo dame na no yo!”, as a signal from the nether that Yakuza 0, Yakuza Kiwami, and Yakuza Kiwami 2 would be back on Game Pass having been removed last year. And by God, they’re there! They’re live! That’s rad! Read more
