How to unlock the Prizefighter achievement in Yakuza 0 - Definitive Guide

Luckily, endless rout is a surprisingly easy battle mode, so this achievement isn't nearly as hard as it may otherwise appear. 98% of your time working towards this will be on grinding out coliseum wins and earnings in order to unlock the endless rout option. You need a "B" ranking in the coliseum, which is 200 mil in winnings, in order to move on to the endless rout, and while this may take some time, it's not nearly as bad as some of the other grindy achievements in this game.

The quickest way to get a B rank in the coliseum is to work your way up to the "Abyssal Romp" fight, which is the 8th fight and requires a D rank to unlock, and then use that fight as the grind. In this fight, the floor gives way in concentric circles and you just want to get your opponent to fall off as quickly as possible either by fighting/pushing them off, or simply avoiding them and hoping they fall off on their own which they often do with reckless abandon. Most of my rounds lasted around 10-30 seconds, so I managed to complete a full 3 round tournament in around 2 minutes with load screens. For the fight I used a nearly fully upgraded Kiryu and chose the bat option simply because I was comfortable with it. There's about 8 different enemies you can run into here, but the only 2 that really gave me any trouble were Invisible Hanzo and Vengeful Otake. Hanzo is annoying to fight with his array of attacks, but if you just keep your distance more often than not he'll just cartwheel to his death. I found aggressively attacking Otake immediately to be best, as his multiple gunshot attack will shred your health. Otherwise, I was making just over 7 mil a tournament and with needing 170 mil to go from D to B, you'll need about 25-30 attempts given a few losses sprinkled in. So some grind, but easily done in 1-2 hours depending on how much coliseum fighting you've done prior to going for this achievement.

Now, once you've gotten a B rank and unlocked endless rout you may be apprehensive about what comes next. I went in with no knowledge and expected something akin to climax battles, aka some garbage RNG and increasingly hard opponents. Luckily, from the time you unlock endless rout to the time you unlock this achievement should take all of 5-10 minutes. Upon starting it, you have a bunch of purchase options. Go with what you're comfortable with, but I found the basic hand to hand brawler for Kiryu to be best simply because it does a lot of damage and they're simple fights. Once you start, you'll face 5 random opponents in a row. These guys are not the same as the coliseum fighters and are laughably easier. I averaged 2-4 seconds per guy. Once you beat all 5 you'll be asked if you want to continue. Hit yes, you'll be given options for healing and then rinse and repeat 5 more times. Once you beat 30 guys, which is tracked on the endless rout purchase screen, your achievement should pop. I'm not sure how RNG dependent the enemy types are, but I had mostly the weakest olive green enemies with a few blue ones peppered in all the way up to 30. However, I kept going after 30 and immediately had yellow suited enemies who were beefier, but still manageable. If you get all olive green and blue enemies, you'll probably be done in a few minutes and confused as to why this achievement exists. Hope this helps!

god this achievement hurt my soul. took me 90 minutes to get it since the falling floors arena is so frustrating and you fall into it before the enemy does quite a few times. so glad i'll never have to endure this stupid coliseum ever again.

I think the guide needs to explain where you go to start this achievement. It's not clear where I need to start it or where to go :)

Edit: The coliseum is the boat on the river that you can go to with Majima.

Additionally I would add that it's only worth turning up with an inventory full of Meds as if you fall off (Which I have loads you lose your whole health bar and you'll need to med back up before re-entering the tournament

Do yourself a favor and buy the golden pistol at the shrine cause in the endless rout, you can use this and you can fly through the first 30 and maybe more. I have not tried it yet beyond 30 but golden pistol is the way to go. Longest part is getting the max of 40 CP you need but unlocked the 9 other skills before buying it.

So I hit rank B with Kiryu and Endless Rout became selectable. However, I cannot select participate, only exit. What exactly am I missing?
Thanks in advance.

I switched to Demonic Frolic when it unlocked to get from C to B, better payout and harder to accidentally lose.

+1 The endless rout part is laughably easy, it's just the grind to unlock it is kind of a pain.

I found devil rout easier for the grind. Each battle took 3-45 seconds so was a similar amount of time without the risk of falling down yourself.
Endless was stupidly easy after that.

Now to grind the rest of the tournament wins for 100%...

Also seemingly couldn't select participate for endless. For some reason you have to use the d-pad to highlight it even though all the others let you use LS. Weird.

I did most of the grind with beast Kiryu in the relic rout I think. Maybe not the fastest but each fight was 3-10 seconds, I'd bully them to the edge and automatically grab a motorcycle or something and it was basically over. Almost mash X to win.

I grinded the Coliseum with Majima (Thug style) play them as normal up to Demonic Romp then farm that repeatedly with the sturdy knife as Thug Majima has a heat action with it, once you’ve unlocked devil frolic keep farming that - any standard enemies grab and throw the enemy and do the flip heat action repeatedly, for the bear switch to breaker style and keep low spinning it repeatedly, getting to rank B was very quick.

A strategy that works well is, as Kiryu, instead of bringing a bunch of healing items, bring hard liquor. Before a match, make sure you have full health and get sufficiently drunk as to have the Drunkards’ Secret (Carouser) active. Choose the Abyssal Romp stage and use the knife. As soon as the match begins, charge your opponent and use the knife’s heat action. Since the match ends before the game takes your heat away, it is carried into the next match. This should take out every opponent you will face on this stage, except Old Man Jing and Vengeful Otake, as they will require some additional kicks when down. This method yields a sub-half second match on average plus the time it takes to perform the heat move, and there is zero risk of falling off the arena. The one caveat to this is that I have some of the Ultra Attack Boost unlocked under the Dragon of Dojima ability tree, and I do not know how much that influences the damage needed. If you are like me and are doing this near the end of the Completion List, this is much faster and easier than even cheesing the opponent off the edge.

A similar strategy can be used in Endless Rout, but I cannot say if it is any faster than any other strategy.

You have to reach rank B before Endless Rout unlocks. I would recommend the stage where the floors falls apart as you can knock the enemy into the abyss for a quick win. Other than that, there's no trick to unlocking Endless Rout quickly. It takes around 25 tournaments to unlock it. Defeating 30 enemies in Endless Rout is extremely easy and most have a tiny HP bar.

The task itself is not difficult, taking into account the fact that you can buy the necessary arenas for money, and not rely on random. +You can also replenish your health after each five defeated.

But to unlock access to Endless Route you need to reach rank B in the arena, which means replaying regular arenas, some of which are quite challenging even on easy difficulty.

In every second tournament, playing as a kirya you will be able to get a golden pistol. By the way, it’s also possible in Endless Route.

For faster leveling up to rank B, I recommend the last tournament in the second row. We take a knife and at the beginning we dance around the enemy. As soon as the edges begin to open, we push it there. Voila! One round of the tournament in 10-15 seconds. Three rounds - around a minute (with all announcements). They give around 7kk for winning. This is less than in subsequent tournaments, but the time and effort required to obtain this money is much less.

We pass behind Majima. We fight with the enemies in the last arena in the second row, holding a knife in our hands. We kick enemies over the edge of the arena. Endless route - a gun for 99 shots, done easily in one go. Armor - ancient chainmail. Before going to the arena, immediately take a full inventory of healers, because one failure and your HP is at zero.
