Best Builds for Yakuza 0 Pocket Circuit Races

You ever watch a product placement anime like Beyblade or Yu-Gi-Oh and wonder what it would be like to live in a world that revolves almost entirely around children’s collectible toys? Well, if you get engrossed in the Pocket Circuit races in Yakuza 0, you can get a little taste of that collectible lifestyle, and buddy, it tastes sweet. Here are the best builds for the Pocket Circuit races in Yakuza 0.

A Pocket Circuit car’s performance is determined by seven types of component: body, tires, frame, motor, gears, battery, and add-ons. Every Pocket Circuit, er, circuit has different hazards and terrain types that necessitate different blends of speed, weight, handling, and longevity. Bodies are usually won from cups, the other parts can be bought from the Pocket Circuit shop counter, as well as the West Park weapons dealer, Ebisu Pawn, and Don Quijote, though I hope you’re prepared to lay down some serious cash ‘cause these lumps of plastic and metal ain’t cheap.
