Though rumors still abound regarding the potential development of a full-fledged Yakuza 3 remake with Yakuza Kiwami 3, no official confirmation or even hints have been provided by the development studio that the game is being worked on or is even planned, though the next Yakuza is in development. For now, at least, this is the best place for gamers to continue the story from Yakuza Kiwami 2 or Yakuza 2. While those who have grown accustomed to - or only experienced - the graphical capabilities of the Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S generations will need to keep an open mind and may take some time to adjust, the Yakuza Remastered Collection ultimately offers a polished and enjoyable experience that series fans shouldn't skip out on.

The Swindle

The Swindle is a visually beautiful and enjoyable rogue-like game for the experienced, but may not be the best choice for players who've never tried games like Spelunky or Rogue Legacy before. The learning curve, especially if it's the first time someone has tried a game like this, may become extremely frustrating. If the player can't advance in the first 15 days or so, the increasing difficulty of enemy characters may make it nearly impossible to enjoy the game and progress at all. If you're new to the genre, we'd recommend trying another rogue-like game with a less steep learning curve. See if it's to your liking, and then give The Swindle a try.
