During developer Ryu Ga Gotoku’s RGG Summit Summer 2023 event this week, the studio showed off a new Yakuza 8 cutscene, previewing an important meeting between Ichiban and Kazuma.
Ichiban and Kazuma discuss proposals
The new Yakuza 8 cutscene came about an hour into the presentation, which in large part discussed the upcoming game. In the cutscene, Ichiban tells Kazuma that he’ll need some help cleaning up the dissolution business, before Kazuma and Ichiban reflect on how far they’ve come.
The cutscene comes to an end with the two of them talking about women, and Ichiban asking for any tips from when Kazuma proposed to someone.
Check out the new Yakuza 8 cutscene below:
