The Judgment computer mod returns the original actor, Captain Hamura, to the Yakuza spin-off after he was removed due to drug charges in Japan. Judgment’s surprise arrival on PC, along with its sequel Lost Judgment, opened the door for a plethora of customizations, and this one has probably always been on the cards. The news of the cast change in “Justice” at the time of the game’s release was quite dramatic.

Interestingly, SEGA has previously stated that they “have no plans to release Judgment on PC.” It seems that SEGA was able to overcome any concerns that might have arisen and bring some games to PC gamers, but it certainly didn’t take long before mods started to appear.
