Kazuma Kiryu, "yakuza with the heart of gold", is back in Yakuza 2 . One year has passed since he defeated his biggest adversary in the previous game. Despite this victory, Kazuma has lost more than he had ever imagined.
But events from the past continue to haunt him. A man he had admired so much, who was like a father to him, has revealed a terrible secret before he died. It's time for Kazuma to solve the mystery once and for all. Caught in the eternal fight between Kantou and Kansai, the Eastern and the Western organized crime groups of Japan, he soon realizes that there are other powers on the stage.
The gameplay in Yakuza 2 continues the story from the previous game, featuring many recurrent characters. The main gameplay idea remains - on-foot exploration of urban environments, hand-to-hand fighting, and role-playing elements. The sequel features some technical improvements, such as the ability to rotate the camera during the fights.
The game also includes more side missions and mini-games, ranging from playing pool and mahjong to running a club and dating women.

MAIN MENU

NEW GAME
Start the story from the beginning. First, enter a difficulty level (Normal or Easy), and then the game will start.

Choose from one of eight Save Data slots to save your games on a memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2) inserted into memory card slot 1. If there is already game data in the data slot you select, the Save Data will be overwritten.
FLOW OF THE GAME
The game is divided into chapters. Each chapter is divided into Event Mode, Adventure Mode, and Battle Mode. Progress through the game by playing in each of these modes.

FACILITIES

HINT! Item Box
Item Boxes provide an alternative place where you can store your items. If you would like to hold onto a few of your items for later use, it is a good idea to drop them here.
RESTAURANTS
There are a variety of places to eat in town such as Smile Burger and Matsuya. By eating, you restore your strength (HP) and gain Experience Points.
Be sure to drop by a shop if you take damage in a battle. There are also bars such as Shellac where you can enjoy a drink.
SHOPS
There are a variety of shops such as M Store, Poppo, and Don Quijote. Items for sale vary depending on the shop, but unlike restaurants, you can take the items away with you.
There are times in the Story where it's necessary to have certain items, so do familiarize yourself with each shop and what they sell.
PLAY SPOTS
Areas where you can enjoy mini-games are known as play spots. There are also hostess bars and massage parlors available too. If you have some money to spare, then why not see what each place has to offer.
COIN LOCKERS
Coin lockers can be found in both Kamurocho and Sotenbori. If you find yourself in possession of a numbered key, open the door corresponding with that number to receive the item inside. Locker keys are scattered around town, so keep your eyes open.
HINT! Listen to the Locals
Rumors travel fast around town. Most rumors are meaningless, but by listening to a lot of people, you may occasionally hear something useful. In both the towns, there are also shops that sell information. Information is valuable, so listen well.
ACQUIRING SKILLS
In town, there is a man who can help you acquire techniques that can be used in combat. Each skill will give you a definite advantage, so push him to teach you his techniques.
