Explore Japan with Persona and Yakuza

Japan is always a fantastic place to visit. I always dream of visiting this country and it appears that even without vising the land of Rising Sun, anyone can now explore Japan with Persona and Yakuza. Both these games are utterly brilliant. They depict stunning details of famous locations in Japan. It makes sense, though because both of them are based in Japanese culture. The Kamurocho district in Yakuza, for example, is a representation of Kabukicho district in Shinjuku, Tokyo. Persona, the other one, presents life-like versions of so many famous hot spots around the country’s capital. If you ever visited Sangenjaya district near Shibuya, you will realize how Persona 5 captures most of the details perfectly through the Yongenjaya district. There are even shops and tight alleys depicted i...

The Dragon Walks the Streets Again – Yakuza Kiwami is Now Available in the Americas and Europe It’s time to bring it back to 2005 because Yakuza Kiwami, the HD remake of the PlayStation 2 classic Yakuza, is out now in the West! The game is now available physically and digitally on the PlayStation4 for $29.99 (with commensurate European pricing).

Worse yet, Kiryu’s chil...

Yakuza Online Coming To PC And Smartphones

Kamurocho, Toyko, the great entertainment district of the east. This city, which is known as the city that never sleeps, has been long dominated by the Tojo Clan, Eastern Japan’s greatest yakuza organization. However, it is 2018.

Meanwhile, one man rises to take back the city as it once was. Born and raised in Kamurocho, Ichiban Kasuga is as stubbornly honest as he is pure. Working with his allies who share the same ambition, he will confront the major powers that be. But they will encounter an unexpected conspiracy—. A youn...

Yakuza Kiwami Free DLC Schedule Announced

We’re not saying that Kazuma Kiryu isn’t already the baddest man strutting down the mean streets of Kamurocho. I mean his nickname is “The Dragon of Dojima” after all, but even he can agree that getting help isn’t a sign of weakness, particularly if aid comes in the form of free Yakuza Kiwami DLC that we’ll be releasing throughout this September! From useful consumable items to Goro Majima’s glorious snake skin jacket outfit, these goodies can only help Kiryu remain a living legend to be reckoned with (especially in the high-octane world of competitive Pocket Circuit racing). The DLC will automatically patch into the game when available and can be obtained from Bob Utsunomiya, the clown located underneath the Tenkaichi Street Gate. Without further ...
