The right combo

Kazuma has access to several combos throughout his adventure, but the most efficient, at least at the beginning (when there are few skills) is the combination of square, square, square, and triangle in the controller.

This type of combo has the power to break the enemy's defense or to drop them on the ground if they are not protecting themselves, which can facilitate elimination. It works on any of the four styles of the protagonist.

Do not get lost!

The map of Yakuza has changed in Kiwami and now the points of interest of the story are marked in blue. Whenever you are lost and do not know your goal (mainly because the game is not in Portuguese), open the map by clicking the touch panel of the DualShock 4 and check the blue dots.

They usually appear very varied and usually only one gives continuity to the plot. It is always good to visit them for more details of the story. It is worth remembering that the pink dots are those in which the game highlights the continuity of the story, but they do not always appear.

Always vary style

The enemies are accustomed to the blows during the fights, even with the combo tip, just above. Because of this, switch between four fighting styles available whenever possible: Brawler, Rush, Beast, Dragon.

Each one has specific points: more speed, more strength, more ease with combos and so on. Alternating in the middle of the fight is possible through the digital directional, in real time, without losing the cadence of the blows.

Watch Kiwami

Kiwami is Kazuma's supreme coup. When the climax bar is full, he can activate it and kill the opponent in just one second - destroying whoever is in his path.

The problem is that the Kiwami mode icon appears very quickly and the player can lose it if he is in the middle of a combo. The trick is: always try to hit with the triangle too so that the Kiwami can be activated in the middle of common scams, when available.

Use and abuse of Majima Everywhere

Majima Everywhere is a system of fights in which Kazuma finds, at any moment, the personage Majima in the streets of Kamurocho to be able to fight of free form. You can escape these clashes - but do not do that.

Tips for playing Yakuza Kiwami

The fights of Majima Everywhere mode give a lot of experience and are very difficult, which greatly facilitate the evolution of Kazuma. This modality, in fact, was inserted precisely with the objective to help in the growth of the main personage. So no matter what mission you are in, always fight Majima.

Start by improving energy

The evolutionary system of Yakuza Kiwami allows Kazuma to improve, including fighting styles, speed, punches. But the main tip is always to start releasing new energy and life points.

Kazuma's life bar is very small at the beginning of the game - after the prologue, when he returns from prison - and recovery items are scarce. It is easier to survive a difficult fight if you are more likely to take wallops without dying.

Always save - and save has changed!

Yakuza Kiwami is not a difficult game, but it's always good to let your progress be saved - much in the way of the huge story scenes. If you die or the video game goes off for some reason, you will return to the last auto-save.

The game tells you this, but it's worth to leave the tip: the "save" has also changed. Now you do not have to go to the phone booth to do it, just press the pause button - Options - to enter the menu and choose the option.

Equipment

One of Yakuza's funniest functions is back: now Kazuma can be equipped. Many people do not know this, mainly because the game is action and pounding, however, items can make your life easier in the fighting.

Tips for playing Yakuza Kiwami

The detail is that the game does not inform you which are equipables. You usually buy them in stores or win as rewards for quests, but the game does not indicate the benefit of equipping you, if possible. Press Options and go to the inventory menu to check what you have and do not stop using.
