It's not even out in Japan yet and looks to have an utterly insane amount of content so I'm not surprised or upset.

We have gone from praying for God to deliver us a single game to getting TWO YAKUZA GAMES IN ONE YEAR

God bless you Gio Corsi.

Oooooh I thought it had already been out in Japan. This is not a long wait then in comparison to other Yakuza titles. It is taking us over 3 years to get Yakuza Zero.

It's a shame they never translated Kenzan, probably the most interesting Yakuza game imho.

Though watching the LP I understand because Western media would've flipped their poo poo with Haruka's job.

Next we're gonna hear Gio Corsi has gone to Sega and gotten us a day 1 release in the west of Yakuza 7 or something.

I've changed a lot since I started hanging with Sonic, but I can't depend on him forever. I know I can do this by myself! Okay, Eggman! Bring it on!
Now that you've secured up to 6 how about getting Ishin for funzies? That sound like a good plan Gio?

Well there goes my life after work for the year. It already takes me ages to beat a Yakuza game (have to wait for the SO to not be busy because this series is our version of Days of Our Lives), but to have 3 games in 2 years is amazing.

I'm really excited for Kiwami though. I have a really hard time replaying Yakuza 1 due to being spoiled by 3-5.

Yakuza games are the only ones I'll play until I pass out. Get bored of everything else.

Does Kiwami change up the story enough that a Yakuza 2 remaster or whatever would need to be done?

I mean I'd love it I could play Yakuza 0-6 on the PS4, imagine how beautiful a collectors set that could be :allears:

Getting home to those announcements last night just blew me away. I didn't expect Kiwami so soon (or at all, for that matter), and a 2018 for Yakuza 6 sounds pretty good when you consider that we might be getting a newly localized Yakuza every 6 months.

Of course. In fact I got so hysterical about it that I went and blame shovelware devs in Japan for ruining everything. Good thing Gio Corsi was there to tell Sega that there are still customers with taste unlike the Senran Kagura fans who gives it a 95% positive rating on steam to stick it to people with taste

They're publishing all of Sega's 'we don't think this will sell' stuff in Europe, since Sega Europe is an empty office someone occasionally goes in to clean before the next Football Manager game comes out.
Their logo was on the trailer.
