'Yakuza 3' (PS3) Coming to North America/Europe After All?

by Rainier on Sept. 20, 2009 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT

Yakuza 3 is the next cinematic chapter in the video game saga offering an authentic, gritty and often violent story situated two years after Yakuza 2, set in Ôsaka and Okinawa.
Yakuza 3 takes a departure from the first two games by moving from the gritty cityscape of Tokyo, to Okinawa, where Kiryu runs a center for orphaned children. The orphanage is on land that is owned by a mob boss who is under pressure from the government to sell the land, making life once again tough for Kiryu. While earlier this week SEGA hinted that it might be bringing Yakuza 3 over to the west after all, sources have indicated that the game is being localized for Europe/North America as we speak. While SEGA is expected to announce Yakuza 4 at the Tokyo Game Show, we can only hope it will also shed some light on the previous title's faith.
