About

Yakuza (2005) is an action-adventure game that introduces players to the gritty underworld of organized crime through the story of Kazuma, a former Yakuza member. Emerging from prison after a murder cover-up, he finds himself entangled in a mystery involving a significant heist and a young girl who may hold the key to uncovering the truth. The game is notable for its rich narrative, engaging side missions, and dynamic combat system, which immerses players in the vibrant yet dangerous streets of Kamurocho.

In terms of PC performance, Yakuza is accessible for most players thanks to its relatively low system requirements. To achieve decent FPS, a minimum entry-level GPU with a score of around 300 is necessary, and 2 GB of RAM is required to run the game smoothly. Players can expect satisfactory performance on budget-friendly GPUs, making it an ideal choice for gamers looking for solid benchmarks without the need for high-end hardware.

With a rating of 77/100, Yakuza is a solid entry in the action-adventure genre, appealing to fans of narrative-driven games. If you're interested in a compelling story combined with engaging gameplay, this title is worth your time, especially for those who enjoy exploring the intricacies of a criminal underworld while experiencing diverse combat and character interactions.

Performance profile

Released in December 2005, Yakuza comes from the DirectX 9 era. Even the cheapest modern discrete GPU crushes it at maxed-out settings; the only real bottleneck today is CPU single-thread speed on older titles that were never multi-threaded.

Extremely light — Yakuza runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

The game follows the story of Kazuma Kiryu (Darryl Kurylo/Takaya Kuroda), a yakuza whose life changes when his boss, Sohei Dojima, attempts to rape Kiryu's childhood friend, Yumi Sawamura (Eliza Dushku/Miyako Uesaka)). When Dojima is murdered by Kiryu's best friend and fellow yakuza, Akira Nishikiyama (Michael Rosenbaum/Kazuhiro Nakaya), Kiryu accepts blame for the murder, and is imprisoned for ten years. During his incarceration, Kiryu is expelled from his organization, the Tojo Clan, and Yumi goes missing. After his release, he learns that ten billion yen has been stolen from the Tojo Clan's private bank, and that the entire Japanese underworld is now searching for the lost wealth.
