Yakuza Ad Hints At Major Change For The Series
The next Yakuza doesn't even have an official title yet, but a recent ad in Famitsu suggests that the next game in the series will be significantly different from what fans are used to.
The ad below shows the game's fictional Kamurocho district in shambles, with storefronts on fire and buildings collapsing in the background. We have no idea what "The End" may be referring to, but the ad looks like a big departure from the franchise's hostess bars and mahjong parlors.
We will bring you more information on this Yakuza during this year's Tokyo Game Show.
