Sega announces Lost Judgment - the next game set in the Yakuza universe

More On: Judgement Lost Judgement

So, I was just settling down for a nice, long Zoom meeting when I got a little ping on my phone. It was YouTube, informing me that there was a trailer for a new PlayStation game available. I didn't recognize the logo, so I attended my meeting without watching. Afterwards, I clicked the link and lost my mind.

Lost Judgement is the sequel to Judgement - the new franchise set in the Yakuza universe. We here at Gaming Nexus dug into the first Judgement game last week when a shiny new remaster was released on next-gen platforms. So to see that a new story staring detective lawyer Takayuki Yagami is right around the corner is thrilling. 

Once again, Lost Judgement will be throwing Takayuki Yagami into a hardboiled world of crime, as he attempts to get the bottom of another grisly murder. This time, Yagami will have more tricks up his sleeve, as he will be gaining a new fighting Snake fighting style (to supplement his existing Crane and Tiger styles), new gadgetry, and new methods of infiltration. And of course, there will be plenty of Club Sega locations to explore along the way. 

Games N Moorer recently streamed the first Judgement game, and had a blast exploring Kamurocho. You can check that stream out here. Lost Judgement is scheduled to release on September 24 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One.
