Yakuza: Like a Dragon PC system requirements and PS5 release date announced

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is finally coming to the west in just a couple of months for PC, Xbox Series X, Xbox One and PS4. As we lead up to the release, the developers have unveiled the game's PC system requirements, as well as the eventual PS5 release date, which will be coming later than other platforms. 

Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a departure for the series, starring all new characters and featuring new combat mechanics. The game releases for PC, current-gen consoles and Xbox Series X on the 10th of November. The PS5 version will be coming several months later on March 2nd 2021, although anyone who gets it on PS4 can upgrade to the PS5 version for free as soon as it releases.

As for the PC version, here are the minimum system requirements:

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • Processor: Intel Core i5-3470 | AMD FX-8350
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660, 2 GB | AMD Radeon HD 7870, 2 GB
  • Storage: 40 GB available space

And here are the recommended system requirements:

  • OS: Windows 10 64-bit
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-6700 | AMD Ryzen 5 1400
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060, 3 GB | AMD Radeon RX 580, 4 GB
  • Storage: 60 GB available space

The change in HDD space requirements suggests a high resolution texture pack. The good news is that either way, Yakuza: Like a Dragon won't require particularly expensive hardware to run well.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
