Yakuza HD Collection Japanese Trailer Shows Lots Of People Getting Shot

Update: We're still not sure if the Yakuza HD collection is coming to North America, but there is a Japanese trailer for the game.

-------------------------------------

Original Story: The new issue of Japanese magazine Famitsu has reportedly revealed a Yakuza HD collection, which includes the first two titles in the series remastered for PlayStation 3.

The collection is scheduled to release on November 1, 2012 for ¥5,290 ($66) in Japan, according to reports. We don't know what, if any, additional features are included in the collection. A North American release has not been confirmed at this time, either.

Sega is expected to make a full announcement through the website tomorrow. Game Informer contacted the publisher for additional information.

Note: The picture above is from Yakuza 4.

Comments
  • This ought to be neat, especially after Dead Souls- even though it was actually alright and a refreshing change of pace...

  • Oh I can't wait to I can complete my Yakuza collection

  • can someone enlighten me about these Yakuza games? what type of games are they exactly?
  • Awesome! I have 3 and 4, but have been waiting on getting the first two, because they are a bit rarer, so this is great news!

  • I wouldn't call it a collection if it's only two games. They should have at least one more in there.
  • What is Yakuza?

    Edit: Found out in the comments above.
  • Remastered anything is awesome. Hope for an American release!

  • Jesus Christ, Sony, what's with all the HD remakes? And when's the Bouncer getting re-done?
  • I'd definitely buy this if it comes to the states. I'm a huge fan of this series.

  • I hope we get this and it's retail...

  • I hope we do. I couldn't play either The story of them due to the age of the game. The storylines were great.
  • A day one buy. One more thing what is that chick looking at?
  • I like these games, but have ANY of them sold that well (at least in America)? Seems like a waste of money if very few people are going to buy it (again, at least in America). This just doesn't seem like a series a lot of people are clamoring for an HD release.
  • Feel like I'll be the only one saying "Shenmue!"

  • So HD remasters of the first two Yakuza games are coming out first than Shenmue 1&2 HD remasters -_-

    I love the Yakuza series but without Shenmue the series probably wouldnt have existed since it was the same developers

  • gasp, dont care

  • Yakuza games are actually pretty fun. I enjoy them, and want to see which ones will be in this HD collection.

  • I would definitely pick this one up.

  • Hard to call it a collection when it consists of 2/4 games. Same story with the DBZ Budokai nonsense where they didn't bother to include Budokai 2.
