Yakuza Kiwami 2 is the followup to Yakuza Kiwami. It is the remake of the second title released under the Yakuza name, Yakuza 2. Notable changes include the usage of the Dragon Engine, which had only been used in Yakuza 6 at this point, the replacement of some unique characters with face scanned versions. This includes Tsutomu Bessho, Ryo Takashima, Jiro Kawara, and Wataru Kurahashi. Furthermore, Shinseicho, a small district within Osaka that was present in Yakuza 2 was omitted for Kiwami 2. It's believed that there was a time crunch and a focus on other projects, as Sotenbori itself suffered removal of some areas, as leftovers indicate.
Yakuza Kiwami 2 was developed at the same time as Project Judge. The remnants of Project Judge are present on the Windows port, however, they are not on the Japanese PS4 release.
