SEGA are set to announce the next entry in the Yakuza series on the 24th August.
SEGA will host a stream via NicoNico to shed light onto its next release. The game will be released for the Playstation 3 & 4, and wont be a continuation of Yakuza:Ishin. It'll be interesting to see which arc this release will follow, even though current levels of optimism regarding Yakuza is a little low these days in the west.

I'm rooting for a full series reboot at this point.
ReplyDeleteI feel Kiryu has done far too much at this point, you'd be foolish to mess with a guy with his reputation, also it seems that apart from Akiyama they can't quite create the next Kiryu.
Also as a reminder, the #DayoftheDragon campaign is active this week so letters to Sega about how we want Yakuza 5!. Details can be found on the Yakuza 5 Petition post.
