This is particularly evident in close-up shots of the characters, whose sweaty pores look every so slightly crisper on Nintendo&#8217;s new hardware when compared to the PS4.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, there are some caveats involved here; there may be some compression involved with some of the footage, but as a rough estimate, it might be the closest we&#8217;ve come so far to comparing Yakuza 0 on Switch 2 with its existing counterpart.<\/p>\n<p>Yakuza 0: Director&#8217;s Cut is launching on day one for the Switch 2 on 5th June 2025 and comes packed with a brand new multiplayer mode called Red Light Raid. This sees up to four friends fight side-by-side against waves of enemies, with up to 60 playable characters available.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"scanlines\" title=\"Comparison\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/679992ae74a95\/comparison.large.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/comparison.900x.jpg\" width=\"900\" height=\"488\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Comparison\"\/><\/a>Image: <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GyKiWomgabQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cycu1 \/ Sega<\/a><\/p>\n<p>What are your thoughts on this little comparison piece?
