Next Yakuza Title Announced for Japan

Posted by Darrin in Uncategorized, Y on July 2nd, 2008

There is a new Yakuza title in development for PS3. Apparently, the previous Yakuza title, “Kenzan”, was a spin-off from the main series, and was not the official Yakuza 3 as previously believed.

If you are confused, here is a quick overview:

Game Title	Console	Japan Release	USA + Europe Release
Yakuza	PS2	Dec 2005	Sep 2006
Yakuza 2	PS2	Dec 2006	Sep 2008
Yakuza: Kenzan	PS3	Mar 2008	Unknown
Yakuza 3	PS3	Unkown	Unknown

Here’s a pic from PS3 Yakuza Kenzan featuring a character played by the famous model Yinling of Joytoy

Yakuza 2 Coming with Subtitles

Yakuza 2 Coming to the West with english subtitles Way nicer than a dubbed voice over.

Sega, how about Yakuza 3? Does it really take two or three years to localize for the west?

Posted by T0SH in PLAYSTATION Store, PS3, PS3 software, Y, ZGame Profiles on January 2nd, 2008

The exclusive PlayStation 3 game Yakuza 3 will have a demo released on the PlayStation Network in mid-January! The game will take place during the 1605 period. I must have this But please give us the option to have Japanese voices with English subtitles. The game is out March 6th in Japan for $75, no word on other regions yet.

If you don’t have a Japanese PSN account, better make one now. You don’t need to enter any credit card info. You just need a Japanese address. So get to it.
