Sega Producer Daisuke Sato sat down with Spanish gaming news outlet MeriStation at Gamescom 2019. In the interview, Sato stated that Judgment exceeded sales expectations in the west. However, SEGA has nothing to announce yet. Sato also states that the team is interested in making sequels in the future. Here’s the excerpt from MeriStation:
“From our point of view, Judgment has exceeded the sales expectations we had in the West ; they are being very good, ”commented Sato. Given this circumstance and the insistence on the part of the developer, Ryu ga Gotoku Studio, for innovating with fresh bets, we asked him if the continuity of the franchise was in his plans.
“We, as a team, would like to continue working on future installments of the Judgment series,” he added.
Currently, Sega is working on a new Yakuza game starring Ichiban Kasuga. Stay tuned at Final Weapon for more news regarding Sega and Ryu ga Gotoku studio titles!
