The first is a TV commercial focusing on what’s basically the most relevant change brought by the seventh mainline game of the series, the fact that it’s a JRPG. We also get another look at Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima.

Two more TV commercials focus on the story and on the characters that we’ll meet in the game.

Three additional videos come from Sony Computer Entertainment, and they’re hilarious live-action trailers focusing on the idea of job change. 

We get to see a fortune teller engaging in a dance battle, a detective changing into host, and a secretary changing into idol.
