The characters. Those of you who are not yet familiar with Kiryu, Haruka, Majima, Nishiki, etc. have no idea of their depth.
Kamurocho. I could say more about it, but there is a whole section of the analysis focused on discussing the city.
The wide variety of secondary activities
Despite the fact that the latest deliveries of the franchise are already translated into Spanish, the original Kiwami arrived and remains entirely in English.
He needs a good optimization patch for the most populated areas.
The upgrade system is so comprehensive that if you do not invest the initial points correctly, important battles can become difficult.

Smaller than the other games in the series
Keyboard and mouse controls aren't the best

Yakuza Kiwami reviewed by Phenixx Gaming
A great way to jump into the Yakuza franchise
Great performance on the Switch in both handheld and docked mode
An easy-to-follow action game with plenty of side quests to explore
The game feels dated, and could have really used a few fine-tuning additions
Not quite the way the franchise plays now, but still fun to revisit this era of the series

Portable Yakuza!
Captivating plot, with endearing characters and many twists and turns.
Varied combat, with a good amount of different fighting styles.
A lot to do, between the main content and optional.
The side stories are very entertaining to follow.
Occasional FPS drops
Many assets reused from Yakuza 0
The beginning is a bit slow
Without subtitles in Brazilian Portuguese

Engaging combat system when you get the space to experiment
Retro Tokyo brought to life with immersive world design
Kiryu is an enjoyable protagonist
Notable storytelling ambition
Yakuza on Switch, FINALLY, and with a decent port
Frustrating difficulty spikes
Far too many interruptions and pacing issues

Finally in Italian, with careful localization.
Solid technical porting on Switch 2, smooth and stable.
Stories and characters always extraordinarily current.
No new content or additional video.
Kiwami 1 shows its structural age.
To be evaluated by those who have already played them.

Finally in Spanish and with a good translation.
The first Kiwami runs at 60 FPS and is very sharp.
Kiwami 2 is more powerful and looks better on PS4 and XBOne.
It would be great to have native HDR.
A few hiccups in the transitions of Kiwami 2.

Lots of extra missions to take on and rewarding upgrades to unlock
Main campaign significantly lacks variety

Open world is as limiting as always

Yakuza Kiwami reviewed by Nintendo-Town
Des cinématiques de grande qualité
Plutôt propre et solide techniquement
Un beat'em all riche et défoulant
Plein d?expériences et de mini-jeux loufoques
Une durée de vie immense et plein d?annexes
Un scénario sanglant et mature inspiré des clichés Yakuza
Des récits annexes absurdes à la japonaise
Une ambiance sonore de très grande qualité
Un doublage japonais et un jeu d?acteur très bon
Une très bonne expérience à petit prix
Ça bave, ça pop surtout en portable
Quelques défauts de modélisation et animation
Un système de combat qui peut tourner en rond
Un peu moins de folie que les opus récents
Pareil pour les annexes
Il faut aimer l?ambiance sonore japonaise
Et un peu la pop japonaise
Certains auraient apprécié un doublage dans d?autres langues
Puis surtout une traduction en français
