Blakeuza Kiwami 2 Remastered
The much-needed redo of the original Blake Izayoi Kiwami 2 mod with fleshed out lore and other updates for the best narrative experience.
Witness the events of the Outside World back in 2006 as Blake in the Dragon of Dojima's shoes, seemingly as retold by the memories of his rival, Kazuki Murasaki. Play as the Butler of Izayoi as he relives the events of Ryuji Goda's ambitions for war against the Tojo Clan in the midst of a power struggle.
As nonsensical (and non-canon) as it may seem, Blake learns at least one thing: the organization responsible for seizing the better future that a young Murasaki could have had all those years ago.
Blakeuza Kiwami 2 comes with the non-canon "Murasaki Saga", an altered version of The Majima Saga foreshadowing the lore of future Murasaki Everywhere stories.
The mod also comes included with the definitive Complete Editions of Murasaki Everywhere Hajimari and Gensokyo Origins, the story arcs that reveal Murasaki's past in Sotenbori and his tumultuous journey entering the mystical world of Gensokyo as an amnesiac.

Version history
Version 1:
The first Blakeuza mod for the Yakuza games running on the Dragon Engine.
Previously known as "Blake Izayoi Kiwami 2", it wasn't really much. Just featured Blake as Kiryu, Murasaki as Majima, and Sakuya Izayoi finally having a bigger role as Kaoru Sayama.
2025 Redux/Version 2:
Calling the 2025 Redux a simple redo is a huge understatement. It's practically an entire new mod.
This version now came with its own modified version of Triple AAA's Legend Remix Kiwami 2, and Murasaki mostly received an improved Mad Dog moveset for the Majima Saga to make Kiwami 2's watered down version of the moveset less dull and uninteresting.
Sakuya and Murasaki got major model redos, many cameo members were modded into the Majima Construction minigame for Murasaki Construction, and finally introduces the main antagonist of Murasaki Everywhere's story: Homare Nishitani III .
Also features a guest cameo of Kurisu Murasaki (kurichan_ch @ Twitch) as Club Four Shine Manager (and Hostess) Yuki, who debuted in Yakuza 0, and canonizes Kurisu as a potential lost half-sibling of Kazuki Murasaki.
Comes bundled with the "Complete Editions" of Murasaki Everywhere story series "Hajimari" and "Gensokyo Origins", the up-to-date versions of the stories previously bundled with Blakeuza Zero Director's Cut.
2026 Remaster/Version 2.1:
Yet another much-needed visual update to the previous 2025 Redux release. Main changes include Blake Izayoi's consistent blue irises and Kazuki Murasaki's correct medical eyepatch, backported from Pirates in Hawaii. The 2026 remaster targets Yakuza Kiwami 2 Remastered (2025) only; work on the Legacy version has been dropped due to work constraints.
Other changes include updating the UI textures, namely using brand-new renders for the Clan Creator (including yet another THIRD remaster of the Murasaki Construction poster with proper lighting for the first time), Coliseum, and pause menu character profiles for some characters: Blake, Sakuya, Murasaki and a plethora of the main Murasaki Family members from the Murasaki Everywhere story.
Unfortunately, this mod's K2R version doesn't come with Legend Remix K2 due to forward compatability issues with K2R, so it comes with a much more stripped down moveset-changing changelist (including Kiryu weapon movesets and Murasaki's slightly less cancerous moveset in the Majima Saga).
