We already know that Kiwami 3 is making changes to how Kiryu fights \u2014 he&#8217;s got a whole new weapon-based stance for a start \u2014 but we haven&#8217;t had any proper deep dives up until this point.<\/p>\n<p>And then there&#8217;s obviously Dark Ties \u2014 the smaller adventure that&#8217;s been bolted onto the release.

From my understanding the older non remake games haven&#8217;t aged up as well so this will probably remain my top 5.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<ul class=\"ui-comment-tools\">\n<li class=\"likes first last\">1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<article class=\"comment\" id=\"comment8952683\" data-author=\"users\/315032\" data-subject=\"comments\/8952683\" data-dislikes=\"0\" data-id=\"8952683\">\n<p class=\"avatar\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"framed lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/static.pushsquare.com\/themes\/base\/images\/avatar.svg\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Olskeezy\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"detail\">\n<ul class=\"info\">\n<li class=\" first\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"num\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"news\/2025\/12\/yakuza-kiwami-3-and-dark-ties-gameplay-deep-dive-announced-for-next-week#comment8952683\">5<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Olskeezy<\/li>\n<li class=\" last\"><time data-days=\"5\" class=\"date age \" datetime=\"2025-12-17T22:28:47+00:00\">4 hours ago<\/time><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<section class=\"text\">\n<p>You guys have the stream going live on the 12th &amp; 13th of February, not 22 December.<\/p>\n<p>Can&#8217;t wait for this though!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<ul class=\"ui-comment-tools\">\n<li class=\"likes first last\">1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<article class=\"comment\" id=\"comment8952689\" data-author=\"users\/103228\" data-subject=\"comments\/8952689\" data-dislikes=\"0\" data-id=\"8952689\">\n<p class=\"avatar\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"framed lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/users\/103228\/avatar.jpg?v=1624284665\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"nessisonett\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"detail\">\n<ul class=\"info\">\n<li class=\" first\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"num\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"news\/2025\/12\/yakuza-kiwami-3-and-dark-ties-gameplay-deep-dive-announced-for-next-week#comment8952689\">6<\/a><\/li>\n<li>nessisonett<\/li>\n<li class=\" last\"><time data-days=\"5\" class=\"date age \" datetime=\"2025-12-17T22:35:35+00:00\">4 hours ago<\/time><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<section class=\"text\">\n<p>Nope.
