Yakuza 4: Complete All 63 Substories

AntMag.NET

Alright, so you're diving into Yakuza 4 and want to tackle those sidequests, huh? They call 'em Substories, and they're basically little self-contained stories that pop up all over Kamurocho. You'll get approached by someone with a problem, and usually, you'll either have to beat some folks up or have a chat to sort them out. Finish one, and you'll usually snag some kind of reward.

Keep an eye on your map – Substories are marked with a bright green question mark. You can't miss 'em if you're paying attention!

Now, Yakuza 4 has a cool little twist with Substories: there are two levels of completion. Nail the best possible outcome, and you'll get a shiny star next to it in your menu. If you just get through it without messing up too badly, you'll get a checkmark. For just beating the game, either counts, but that star? That means you got the *best* reward and, you know, avoided the shame. And trust me, there's a lot of shame to be had if you don't aim for that star.

There are a whopping 63 Substories scattered across the game. I've listed them out below in the order they appear in the game's completion menu, since it's not numbered. If you're comparing this to another list, just look for any substories here that aren't on yours, and you can click through to find the details.
