Sega Announces Yakuza Zero For PlayStation 3 And 4

by Kyle Hilliard on Aug 24, 2014 at 06:31 AM

Sega has revealed the title of the next Yakuza title, but that's about it.

More details are promised for the Tokyo Game Show later this month, but right now all we know is the name, Yakuza Zero, and the platforms, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. This will be the first new-gen Yakuza title. It's unclear if the game will make its way to North America, but considering the last two Yakuza titles did not make their way here, I wouldn't be too optimistic.

Our Take
It's always strange when a video game franchise only seems to appeal to one part of the world. You would think quality gameplay would transcend culture, but this is an occasion where the game just can't seem to find footing in North America, despite being very popular in Japan.
