WTMG's Leo Faria: "I was worried that Yakuza 4 wouldn’t win me over as Kiryu would have to share his screentime with three other newcomers, but that concern disappeared pretty quickly. I should never doubt those screenwriters, as they have managed to come up not only with brand new characters that were extremely likable, but they have also managed to intertwine their stories in a masterful, quasi-Hollywood way. Yakuza 4 is more Yakuza and that is never a bad thing. It constantly impressed me with its slick combat, iconic characters, and absurd set pieces. Now, onto Yakuza 5!"
