After accidentally killing a Tojo clan member, Ukyo is forced to win 10 consecutive matches in an underground fighting circuit based in Kamurocho known as the Dragon Heat. Instead of longtime protagonist Kazuma Kiryu, Kurohyou players take on the role of an 18-year-old street punk named Tatsuya Ukyo. Instead, the two games were developed in collaboration with Syn Sophia, the studio behind the Def Jam fighting game series. Interestingly, the Kurohyo games were not solely developed by SEGA. Two games have been released: Kurohyō: Ryū ga Gotoku Shinshō was released in 2010, while its sequel Kurohyō 2: Ryū ga Gotoku Ashura hen was released in 2012.
However, not a lot of people-even fans of the Yakuza series-have talked about Kurohyou.Īlso known as Yakuza Black Panther, Kurohyou is a Yakuza spinoff series released exclusively in Japan for the PSP. Then there was the time the studio tried to cash in on the zombie genre craze that took over gaming in the early 2010s, marked by the release of Yakuza: Dead Souls (2011). Apart from the more recent Judgment series, Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio has experimented with a feudal Japan setting in Ryu Ga Gotoku Kenzan (2008) and Ryu Ga Gotoku Ishin (2014). As with most successful video game franchises, it should come as no surprise that Yakuza has its fair share of spinoff entries.
