Yakuza Kiwami (Japanese: 龍が如く KIWAMI Lit. Like A Dragon: Extreme) is a Japanese video game released in late 2015 in Japan, August 2017 in English-speaking regions on PS4, and in February 2019 on PC. It is a remake of the original 2006 Yakuza game. However, most of the types of guns used on this game are different models compared to the original. It is likely that the guns were modelled on airsoft derivatives, as the game developer has previously credited Tokyo Marui for lending them airsoft models to use for Binary Domain.


The following weapons appear in the video game Yakuza Kiwami:


Handguns

1911-Derived Pistol

A Colt 1911 style pistol can be seen in the game used by character Shinji Tanaka, as well as being held by Haruka Sawamura after surviving the mass shooting at Bacchus. It most closely resembles a Para Ordnance LDA, although there are still differences such as the shape of the hammer and truncated rear spur.

Beretta 92FS

The Beretta 92FS is used by members of the MIA especially towards the final chapter, in contrast to the original game where they used Glock 26s. It is also used by Nishikiyama Family Sergeant Kazuto Arase when he fights Kiryu on the roof top. A slow-motion sequence during the game correctly shows the delayed-blowback mechanism, where the barrel rotates around its axis to unlock the breech. However, the sequence is chronologically incorrect, as the gun starts blowing back before the projectile exits the barrel.

Desert Eagle

A Desert Eagle is purchasable from a weapons dealer as the "Tiger's Bane," and is simply just the "Tiger Pistol" from Yakuza: Dead Souls ported over.

Makarov PM

The Makarov PM appears as the "9mm Automatic Pistol" and is used by a number of Yakuza gangsters and can also be purchased by Kiryu from the weapons dealer. Like most of the guns in this game, the Makarov's details are weirdly proportioned. The gun seems to have an extended barrel (a feature on Canadian imported Makarovs), plus a ring hammer and an oddly straighter grip. A rainbow-coloured version of this gun called "Mr Random" is available from a weapons dealer, where each bullet fired has a random effect.

SIG P226/H&K USP

The Modified Air Gun returns from 0 as well, lifting the model of the P226/USP hybrid from Binary Domain along for the ride. For some strange reason, the model in the game files is called a CZ-75, suggesting it may have originally been based on a CZ-75/CZ P-09 type airgun.

SIG Pro

The SIG Pro can be seen used by Shintaro Kazama in a couple of flashback sequences. The first is when he dual-wields them to rescue Kazuma Kiryu by shooting the Snake Flower Triad men who were torturing him. The second is when he shoots the would-be assassin of Yumi and baby Haruka. Interestingly, although the pistol is named as a SIG Pro in the game files, both these flashbacks take place in the mid 1990s, before the SIG Pro actually went into production. Also, Kazama's SIG Pros feature a number of custom touches, including a vented front slide and wooden hand grips. A version of this gun that has been modified to fire tranquillizer darts can be purchased from a weapons dealer as the imaginatively-named "Drow-Z".

Walther PPK

Antagonist Kyohei Jingu uses a Walther PPK as his primary sidearm, where he both grazes Kiryu and murders his love of his life Yumi in the final chapter. The gun is also used by Nishikiyama in said chapter, and suppressed versions are commonly used by his subordinates, the MIA Sergeants.

Revolvers

Nambu Model 60

The Nambu Model 60 appears as the "Double Action Revolver" and is the standard issue pistol for Japanese police officers and is seen at various points during the game. Kiryu uses Date's 9.65mm pistol during the Yokohama car chase, and due to reusing code from Yakuza 0's car chase, it shares the same 15-round capacity (!) as the SIG P226 used in 0. If that wasn't enough, when purchased through a weapons dealer, the gun has a 6 round capacity.

Golden Gun

A revolver loosely based on a Smith & Wesson Model 2 fitted with a normal trigger appears as the "Golden Gun", which is purchasable from Bob Utsonomiya with enough Completion Points. This same CGI model without the golden finish appears on Ryu ga Gotoku Ishin as the "Model 2," which further supports that it is based on this weapon.

Submachine Guns

MAC-10s modified with front foregrips are used by Snake Flower Triad men in the car chase sequence.

Shotguns

Baikal MP-133

The "Broken M1985" shotgun seems to be based on a Baikal MP-133 (given the 3 distinctive rivet holes in the receiver). A version of this shotgun that has been retextured in stainless with a black synthetic stock, as well as being modelled with a different fore end is available as the "Expulsion S-12."

Franchi SPAS-12

A Franchi SPAS-12 shotgun can be purchased from a weapons dealer as the "MJM56-55 Exorcist" Like the Tiger Pistol, this model is lifted directly from Yakuza: Dead Souls and still comes with a SPAS-14 style box magazine.

Golden Rifle

The Golden Rifle from Yakuza 0 returns, although this time you only need to buy it from the pawn shop. Besides being based on a Coach Gun and named "rifle", it also seems to function as some sort of pump action with an audible click between shots.

Remington 870

The Remington 870, modeled with a front link between the mag tube and barrel like the Remington Model 31, is used in a side mission by a Yakuza assassin disguised in drag as well as occasionally in the hands of thugs. A sawn-off version known as the "Slime Gun" appears and as the name suggests, it shoots slime.

Assault Rifles

AK-type rifle

A Snake Flower Triad member uses an AK-based assault rifle when Kiryu arrives. Like the Modified Air Gun, this is a model from Binary Domain that is made out of a mishmash of AK pattern parts, particularly AK-102 and AK-105 carbine components. Unlike most AK type rifles however, it features a rear sight mounted on top of the receiver cover.

Unknown Rifle

A rather strange looking set of rifles, with top sight and brown furniture similar to an Armalite AR-10, but clearly in a smaller calibre with an odd front grip, appear in the BEAM weapon shop. They also have some similarities with the Type R2 prototype of Howa Type 64, but this is probably a coincidence.

Other

Mk 153 SMAW

On the car chase sequence, various men with missile launchers try to blow up Date's car. The model is loosely based on an Mk 153 SMAW missile launcher, with a warhead that sticks out the front of the actual launcher and a stubby overall length.

Type 97 Hand Grenade

Members of the Shimano family use Type 97 hand grenades when assaulting the yacht where Kazama is hiding, and antagonist Futoshi Shimano uses one in a last ditch bid to kill Kiryu, ultimately killing Kazama instead.

Marlin Cannon

As the title suggests, this is a cannon housed inside a fake marlin. It is obtainable from Bob Utsunomiya in one of his many care packages.

Destroyer of Lands

The other cannon in-game is the "Destroyer of Lands" which is purchasable from the weapon shop. It appears like the Cannon in Yakuza 0, that being an 18th Century naval cannon that Kiryu just carries around. It is as hilarious as it is deadly.
