It's still extreme.
Kiwami means extreme and there is nothing more extreme than Yakuza Kiwami 2. Trust me, I'm kind of an authority on this.

A quick RTX on vs RTX off comparison can be seen below.

The best feeling controller I've ever used.
Much like its FightPad sibling, the Fusion Pro Wired Controller for Xbox One is also an officially licensed product from Microsoft.

The first wave of invites have gone out to a very small group of individuals selected to test Halo: Reach on the PC. Those who have been selected will have access to a single mission in Halo: Reach from today until July 1.
