A correction on this: The PS4 version still has the DLC needing to be paid for. However, the PS5 version does not. They packaged all the DLC in for free with it, along with the game looking & playing better.
Meanwhile, the sequel, Lost Judgment, does allow you to play the PS4 version with a free PS5 digital upgrade like so many other PS4 titles have. But the DLC does sell separately and with both PS4/PS5 versions packaged in.
So if you want to get Judgment, you can either get it for PS4 or for PS5, but you'd have to buy both versions separately. If you have a PS5, go for it on that cause of the bump in graphics and all prior DLC included.
TL;DR Summary -
Judgment (PS4) - DLC sold separately, no PS5 upgrade
Judgment (PS5) - DLC included
Lost Judgment (PS4) - DLC sold separately*, PS5 digital upgrade included (PS4 disk required to play it)
Lost Judgment (PS5) - DLC sold separately*
* All Lost Judgment DLC unlocks both the PS4 and PS5 versions of said DLC

I still wish I hadnt bought the PS4 version mere months before this version. Greedy assholes gave no method at all to upgrade aside from rebuying. Doesnt even have more content.

It's a bit different, story-wise, from the Yakuza series. Given it covers a different protagonist, that is to be expected. But both the Judgment and Yakuza games have been staples of enjoyment for a long time. Yakuza 0 all the way to Yakuza: Like a Dragon is a great and consistent series of games. Judgment and Lost Judgment are more recent, but are also very good.

I unknowingly picked up Judgement for PS4 assuming there was an upgrade. Doesn't run very well on PS5 (30fps). Good to know I can pick up Lost Judgement for PS4 and get a free upgrade. I've had the PS5 version wishlisted for some time and haven't seen it below $30.

Played through a good bit of the Yakuza series through Xbox GamePass. Really fun series. I may pick this up digitally from the Xbox Store if it's a similar price. I want to try the Judgement series even though it doesn't have many connections to the Yakuza characters. I like the work the studio(s) have done with Yakuza and I figure it's time I actually spend some money on developers instead of riding the 3 year/$90 GamePass ride.
Really really wished sega ported this to PC. But no, cause of the voice actors used, both games are console exclusive. We were lucky to even have a sequel. fun fact, this is the only Sega IP to be on many consoles but not on PC

I get the enthusiasm to give back to the Devs, especially the Yakuza studio, but MSFT licensing a title or series to gamepass isn't cheap by any means so the Sega and the studio aren't losing out. I do purchase their physical copies as well to be able to play when it leaves Gamepass. Even have gone back to get the PS2, PS3, PS4 & XBSX titles their quality in story telling stands out for sure in a sea of AAA open world games.
I found Lost judgment ~$15 used so will wait until Judgment is at a similar price for XB.

Only if it's the last copy....which you have a 99% chance it will be.

Are both series set in the same universe?
