Popular Sega game 'Judgment' is reportedly getting a live-action TV adaptation with voice actor Takuya Kimura set to reprise his role on-screen.
Sega's successful spin-off of the Yakuza series, Judgment, and its latest sequel Lost Judgment, probably won't receive a third entry due to licensing complications. However, that isn't stopping the game from possibly getting the live-action treatment in the form of a TV show.
Reports show Takuya Kimura, the actor who provided his voice and likeness for the game, will again star as the character in the show. Judgment centers on a former attorney named Takayuki Yagami, who becomes a private investigator in Tokyo's Kamurocho district. Players in the game are able to solve investigations linked to major themes such as suicide, while also being action-heavy like the preceding Yakuza games. Judgment was also previously associated with some controversy.
Judgment was released worldwide on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Google Stadia back on June 25, 2019, while its recent sequel, Lost Judgment, was released on September 24, 2021 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. DLCs featuring new sidequests focused on Yagami's partner, Masaharu Kaito, are currently in development, though no official date has been given. The studio is also hard at work on Yakuza 8, which will likely release sometime in the next year or two.
