Despite a rocky start Ryu Ga Gotoku 7 has managed to top 300,000 sales in its home country. With launch week numbers being the worst in series history since then it seems to be picking up steam and sales have nearly doubled since!
It’s unclear if this means Yakuza will be a JRPG style game going forward or if the team will attempt to branch out in to a new genre but for now sales are positive.
Yakuza 7 is due out in the west later in 2020.
