There's another image:
Someone noted in the 4chan thread that there's a Judgment video that shows a similar red/yellow meter:

Nice catch, looks legit.
Yeah on second thought, Joon gi han might just be following Ryuji, and the bars on top are most likely health / heat bars.
that was a joke lol. I would destroy SEGA if they actually did that
Watching that trailer just makes me want a motorcycle racer from Sega (Harley-Davidson & L.A. Riders). : (
I was more referring to the OP. sorry for making it sound otherwise.
Sure would, but usually the internet debunks that stuff quickly. And so far (at least according the article), they haven't.
Op did and I sure hope it isn't. Hopefully they go full brawler soon again.
Ah, gotcha gotcha. I got confused since it was a reply to my post.
I think there's place for both, if they want to, I sure would like to have both. Turn based in main-line games, brawler in side games.
Ryuji was awesome and my fave antagonist (from what I've played, iem 0 through 4), but part of me just wants then to move on entirely away from anyone before 7 as a focus for at least a couple more games.
if goda can get a game, my dream of a Yoshitaka Mine spin-off that is equal parts brawler and business sim is definitely viable
It's strange how much they dropped from 2 character wise. Goda obviously had to go but they never did anything with Sayama either other than briefly mentioning her in 3.
I'm down for Goda I guess but I'd rather have a Majima or Akiyama spin off.

Random battle took speed from y7 and boss Fights were general better too. I have yet to finish tho. Middle of chapter 9.
I mean that is true If one thinks people never die in the Show Gotham Yakuza is the hold my Beer Equivelent.

Yeah sorry, dumb assumption on my part, edited my post.
I don't mind either tbh, though after finishing yakuza 7 I actually think I still prefer the brawler gameplay. And it would make sense to go back to it for a spin-off.
The fact that there's actually a pic of a dev build looking similar to the allegedly "leaked" images makes me pretty hopeful.There's another image:

I mean... regardless of what you think of him, he's easily one of the most famous characters in the series, lmao. He even was the second protagonist of RGGO.
Return the favor from here and give him a Ryuji Sakamoto costume.
I'm not opposed to them leaving the spin-offs brawlers though.
Nah keep it turn based, more fun that way and we've had so many damn games in the old style already.

It certainly doesn't look like Valkyrie Profile 2 or FF XII :P
Ryuji is such a fucking lame character, and one of the most disappointing aspects of Kiwami 2; he's presented like he's Kiryu's Vergil, but he's not even in the game that much, doesn't do a whole lot, and doesn't even end up having much to do within the grand scope of the story. Made the final boss feel seriously limp.
I love Yakuza but a whole game starring him doesn't excite me, especially since

What I would want out of a game starring him is more Sayama, and fleshing out his relationship with her and getting to know her more since she hasn't been seen since the Yakuza 3, but Ryuji dies at the end of Y2 so this would have to be a prequel. Bleehhhhhh.
Goda is one of my favorite characters in the series, liked him more than even Majima. Please be true.

Is the mobile game canon? (or atleast Ryuji's story in it?)
Do we know when Ryuji's story take place in RGGO? Like, which year?

Oh yeah, I know he's popular (even if I don't understand why). I just don't want to have to suffer through a game with him as a main character.
Good thing that you'll be able to skip the game then, since it's apparently a spin-off.
I'm on the same boat. Goda is one of my favs. I hope it's true !
No. Read my first post in the thread. Its incredibly not canon as of the last chapter. They'd have to severely rewrite the game to even work as is. Aside from certain characters who cannot meet due to how 7 worked out, your not getting 5 cities like the mobile game got (so far, there might be more)
I have to say, as someone who also thinks America is boring, I would gladly welcome any other locale than Kamurocho. That place is as boring as any place I can think of here...
Other places in Asia, tho. Just imagine a Yakuza game in Kyoto, or Hoi An (Vietnam)...
The last game introduced a new huge location which was used for 90odd percent of the game. So even the devs aren't against building the series around new locations. And like you say, there are far more interesting Asian locations to explore. A game in Korea or China would be cool - looking at the crime empires over there like the triads or Jingwon. Would be nice to see both get the spot light rather than just serving as villains. As for Kyoto, modern day Kyoto would be nice, though its already been used in both Kenzan and Ishin so its not as high on my list to return to right now if we are talking about strictly brand new places.
this is probably why devs aren't open about showing games as they're being made
