Judgment remastered for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Stadia

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s detective thriller, Judgment, is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Google Stadia this Friday, April 23.

From the creators of Yakuza, Judgment puts players in the shoes of Takayuki Yagami—disgraced attorney turned rugged private detective—as he uncovers the mystery behind a grisly series of murders. Joined by his partner, ex-yakuza member Masaharu Kaito, Yagami must claw his way through Kamurocho’s criminal underground to unravel the truth.

Praised as “the best crime drama not on TV” by the Hollywood Reporter, Judgment was originally released on PlayStation 4 in 2019. The remastered Judgment marks the gritty tale’s debut on PS5, Xbox Seriex X|S and Stadia in 60fps framerate with enhanced graphics.

In addition to locale, Judgment takes on the classic hallmarks of the Yakuza series through the eyes of Yagami. Take down adversary with stylish martial arts forms, crack the case, and lend your expertise to locals in need around the city. Judgment ups the ante with emphasis on investigative gameplay, tracking suspects and discovering clues as Yagami walks the thin line of justice in a world of corruption. Packed with a dramatic story, filmic combat and a cast of intense characters, Judgment will keep all aspiring private detectives on their toes.

I've been an avid gamer since I stumbled upon ZORK running in my local Radio Shack in 1980. Ten years later I was working for Sierra Online. Since then I've owned nearly every game system and most of the games to go with them. Not sure if 40+ years of gaming qualifies me to write reviews, but I do it anyway.
