Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise is the upcoming beat em’ up game based on the iconic manga/anime of the same name. This game comes from the creators of the wonderfully weird and erratic Yakuza series. The Yakuza games have fun combat mechanics and we can totally see the Yakuza team doing justice to a Fist of the North Star game. The connection is now set to grow much closer between the two series though. You can now beat up baddies as Kazuma Kiryuu as Kazuma Kiryuu Skin in Fist of the North Star DLC has been announced!
The Dragon of Dojima heads to Eden
Kazuma Kiryuu is the main protagonist of the Yakuza series. The Iconic Dragon of Dojima that has served as the protagonist in the Yakuza games for its countless titles is a deeply beloved character to fans of the series. The reveal for Kazuma Kiryuu Skin in Fist of the North Star DLC was announced via Sega where they said:
The Dragon of Dojima has made his way to Eden! This skin lets you change appearance to Kiryu at any point by visiting Kenishro’s home in Eden. While using this skin, all of Kenshiro’s battle dialogue, including the series’ iconic Hokuto Shinken callouts, will be voiced by the legendary Fourth Chairman of the Tojo Clan – Kazuma Kiryu. Fun fact: both Kenshiro and Kiryu share the same Japanese voice actor – Takaya Kuroda!
What’s more is that Kazuma Kiryuu Skin in Fist of the North Star DLC will be available for free from October 2nd to October 16th so mark your calendars people! A trailer was also recently released in it looks fabulous. There could not have been a better fit:
Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise will be available in the west on October 2nd while a demo is available right now. This is a fun little touch to add some extra flavor to the experience, here’s hoping that the Kazuma Kiryuu brings with him the insane hilarity of the Yakuza series!
