On Monday morning, SEGA of America released two trailers for the exciting new project from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios (the creator of the Yakuza series), which is currently titled Project JUDGE.
It’s described as a “courtroom thriller,” and the story trailer introduces a dark mystery. You play as Takayuki Yagami, a former lawyer who encounters a string of gruesome murders that prompt him to leave behind the courtroom in pursuit of finding justice against mounting odds.
The gameplay trailer introduces how you, as Yagami, will solve these mysteries. You’ll have to tail your target and observe their behavior without getting caught. Sometimes, your target will give you trouble, so you’ll engage in a series of quick-time events as you chase them down. Chasing them down will often lead to exciting battles, and the trailer encourages you to “go to town” while fighting people, showing a display of attacks so powerful that they verge on hilarious.
