Yakuza7: Where the Light and Darkness Go" (SEGA), the latest in the "Yakuza" series, is scheduled for release on January 16, 2020. Information on "jobs" for this work has been released.


The first title in the "Yakuza" series was created in 2005 based on the concept of "entertainment for adults. The series has gained popularity for its profound storyline, which is like watching a TV drama, and for its challenging elements that allow the viewer to freely explore the town where the story takes place. The series has produced more than 10 games, including spin-offs, and in "Yakuza 7," the main character has been replaced by Kasuga Ichiban from Kiryu Kazuma. In addition to the well-known "Kamurocho" in the past series, "Isesagi Ijinko" in Yokohama will newly appear. In addition, many new attempts have been made, such as changing the battle system from an action to a command-based RPG.


The four types of jobs revealed this time are "dancer," "fortune teller," "riot cop," and "idol. Each type of job has different characteristics and is a major element in battles. Since this is an RPG, it is very important that the roles of each party be shared. In addition, the existence of "Hello Work," a facility where people can change jobs, was also revealed along with these jobs. For details of each information, please check the following.

[Jobs]
■Dancer


A good-tempered job that performs nimble and cool attacks while dancing. The spinning attack based on breakdancing can damage a wide range of enemies, so it is sure to be a big hit in group battles. It also has many other tricky techniques, and by considering the combination of techniques and handling them well, it can be said that it is a job that shows tremendous power.



■ Fortune Teller


He goes into battle with a crystal ball in his hand. At first glance, it may seem unsuitable for battles, but it is a terrifying job that can cause various disasters and mysterious effects, such as lightning, and inflict intense damage and abnormal conditions on enemies through "fortune-telling. It can be said that this job has the mysteriousness of a wizard even more than the homeless, which is the initial job of Namba. Its defense is low, so it is important to have a strategy to perform techniques without getting close to the enemy.



■Mobilizer


This job is characterized by a full-body protector and a large shield. It boasts of defensive strength and toughness that live up to its appearance. The job can be expected to play the role of a "heavy warrior" or "knight" in RPGs. It is one of the jobs that specializes in defense and is hard to become disabled in battle, so it is recommended that characters with low physical strength and defense be trained as a cavalryman at least once.



■ Idol



A job exclusively for female characters, this job is expected to charm enemies and heal allies, similar to the role of a "monk" in RPGs. It has a very good balance of abilities, and in addition to direct attacks using a microphone, it also has many attack and recovery techniques using singing. It is an easy-to-handle and versatile job that can be expected to serve as both an attacker and a healer.



Hello Work]


In "Yakuza7," Kasuga and his friends can change their jobs at Hello Work. Each job has its own unique battle style, techniques, and ability values, so the key to strategy is choosing the right job and training it. Try out different job combinations to create your ideal party.

Job growth】

Jobs have a "job rank," which, like character level, can be increased by gaining experience through battles and other means. As job ranks increase, new techniques unique to that job can be learned, and the character's basic ability values can be increased. Among the techniques that can be learned are special techniques that can be used by all jobs. The basic ability values increased by job rank are also carried over when changing to another job, so experiencing and mastering various jobs is a shortcut to strengthening your character.
