“Looking back over the past few years it would be hard to believe that the Yakuza series and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio were once a questionable localization since not only have the games gained quite a bit of popularity but their English releases seemed to come out quicker with each iteration. Now not only has this developer been given the chance to spread their wings a bit and try a new original storyline separate from the Yakuza series but it has even been localized with an English dub. With Judgement being the first game in some time to be given this type of treatment, has Sega’s trust in this developer paid off?”
