SEGA has released two new videos giving you a look at two of its upcoming Yakuza games.
The first one is a story trailer for Yakuza: Kiwami, which is a remake of the original game released on PlayStation 2. The PS3 and PS4 version of the game will contain new scenarios, gameplay systems, and mini-games.
For those unfamiliar with the titles, the series is an open world action-adventure game somewhat similar to the Grand Theft Auto series. The main protagonist, Kazuma Kiryu, is a Japanese mobster. The franchise has a hefty fan base in Japan, due to both the action scenes and the complex narrative.
Yakuza 6 is due out for PlayStation 4 in Japan on December 8.
Check out the Trailers:
“Yakuza 6 was officially announced at the Tokyo Game Show 2015 during the Sony conference, exclusively for the PlayStation 4 and with a release date of “Autumn 2016”. Toshihiro Nagoshi of Sega confirmed that more details would be revealed during the rest of the year. A traditional Chinese localisation has been announced for the Asia region. One of the biggest details that were released later in the event is that the famous Japanese actor Beat Takeshi has been announced as a character within the game. The release date for the Yakuza 6 game is not yet known, but Sega did say the remake for the original Yakuza game is going to be coming on January 21, 2016.”
