Yakuza Kiwami 2 Western Release Date Announced
Yakuza Kiwami 2, released in Japan last December, is coming to the west in a special edition steelbook.
The steelbook is only available for preorders and the first run of the game, and features art on the inside cover of "Kiryu and his fierce rival, the Dragon of Kansai, Ryuji Goda."
Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a remake of Yakuza 2, remastered in the Dragon Engine used to create Yakuza 6. All the in-game and cut-scene dialog has been re-recorded, with an emphasis on remaining "as true to the original as possible."
The localization has also been reworked, so it's "the most faithful representation of the original Japanese," according to Sega.
If you've forgotten, or aren't familiar with the story, you can check out a 10-part web comic on the Yakuza Experience website to get up to speed.
5 Little Things You May Not Know About Nintendo Labo
Leave it to Nintendo to get the whole world excited about cardboard with what looks to be the latest incarnation of its philosophy: fun and play over graphics and power. Labo is Nintendo's new DIY Switch-powered cardboard accessory line, and I'm sure you have plenty of questions. So we put together a list of five little things that you may not know about Nintendo Labo.
The RC Car is without a doubt, the simplest Toy-Con in the Variety Kit. It only takes a few minutes to assemble, but it still comes packed with some pretty exciting features. This Toy-Con can see. It uses the IR sensor located inside of the right Joy-Con as a camera and sends a direct video feed back to the Switch, allowing you to see where you're going, even in the dark. The camera is also smart enough to track objects using reflective stickers, so we don't recommend sticking any on your cat. That is, of course, unless you'd like to test out your cat's paper shredding skills.
