The demo is roughly 20 minutes long and features two distinct sections. First, players will defeat enemies at the Kiyomizu temple. This will allow everyone to get a feel for the four different fighting styles of the game. Whether you’re cutting down enemies with the Swordsman style or taking them out at a range with the Gunman style, you’ll be able to get a better sense of how combat in Like A Dragon: Ishin works.
Similarly to Yakuza 0, you’ll have access to all four styles and switch between them using the D-Pad. Be sure to try out all of the different styles in the demo to see which one you like best.
