The future of the Yakuza spin-off Judgement has been unknown for a while now, but it seems there is hope for Yagami yet.

Concerns surrounding the lead character actor severing ties with the game studio lead fans to believe that would be it for Judgement. The most recent entry in the games series was the second of the series, Lost Judgement, which came out in 2021. The gritty crime investigation thriller was widely lauded as a worthy follow-up to the first iteration of the series, but rumours regarding the actor who provided Yagami’s voice and likeness exiting the series were rife even before its launch.

Though it is still uncertain as to whether the Judgement series will receive another game entry, the franchise seems set to continue in a new format. According to a report initially made by Japanese publication Nikkan Gendai and brought to attention for a global audience by Kotaku, TV Asahi is preparing to produce a television live-action series based on the Judgment franchise. Actor Takuya Kimura will supposedly reprise his role as PI Takayuki Yagami.

It’s been a while since we’ve had any updates at all regarding the Yakuza series. Though the sequel to Yakuza: Like a Dragon has been announced a while ago now, we’re still yet to hear any updates on its progress. There’s also the Kaito DLC arriving in Spring ’22.

While video games do occasionally hit the big screens, it’s not all that often we see a complete change of format. It’ll be interesting to see if the games continue at all, or if this is a permanent move to TV format for the Judgement series.
