Judgment

Judgment, known as Judge Eyes: Shinigami no Yuigon (JUDGE EYES:死神の遺言) in Japan, is a spin-off from the Yakuza series developed by Ryu ga Gotoku Studio and published by Sega for the PlayStation 4.

In this psychological thriller, players will take control of disgraced former lawyer Takayuki Yagami (played by Takuya Kimura) who is now working as a private investigator and attempt to solve a series of grisly murders taking place in Kamurocho. In addition to the combat and other typical activities that can be found in Yakuza games, players will have to discover clues and secrets in order to bring the culprits into justice.

Just like Capcom's famed "Ace Attorney" series, story will have satirical elements, criticising the Japanese judicial system, in which nearly 99% of the trials end with a guilty verdict.

The game was released for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Stadia in 2021 as Judgment Remastered, or Judge Eyes: Shinigami no Yuigon Remastered (JUDGE EYES:死神の遺言 Remastered) in Japan.
