Yakuza 6 Demo Releases Tomorrow And It Is Huge
If you're thinking about downloading tomorrow's Yakuza 6 demo, which is already live in a few regions, then you might want to call your ISP and make sure you don't have a download cap.
The demo, which spans what Sega describes as the game's prologue, comes in at a whopping 36.53 GB. If you're inching close to a full PlayStation 4 harddrive, you also might want to double-check before you start a remote download from work.
On the plus side, Sega has said that you can carry over your save file from the game, so this does get you a leg up when the full game launches on its new date of April 17. The game was delayed from March 20 to just a few days before another big PlayStation 4 exclusive, God of War, which seems a little odd.
You can also check out video of Jeff Cork and Leo Vader playing through some of Yakuza 6 in New Gameplay Today from earlier this month.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
