"We know that Sega is supposed to be announcing some new news regarding the Yakuza franchise soon but it seems we may have found out one of those announcements early."
Get an early preview of the games included in the sale running January 18 to February 1.
From PS Blog: "Today we’re happy to reveal August’s Game Catalog lineup for PlayStation Plus, which will be available to play for Extra and Premium members on August 16. It’s headlined by three Yakuza games (which will soon be followed by other entries in the series later this year). But rubbing shoulders with the crime series will be multiplayer horror Dead by Daylight, open world shooter Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands and whimsical adventure Bugsnax. "
Yakuza 0, 1 and 2 alone make this a fucking amazing month. Those three are easily over 20 or 30 hours of gameplay each.
Trials of Mana is a nice addition
They should also start adding the Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest series to the service at some point
As someone that has been playing the Yakuza series since PS2 and has played and beat every game except Like a dragon (working on that now) and the one in feudal Japan, this is an amazing month. I won’t benefit from it personally as I own all of them, but man I hope people give these awesome games a try. Yakuza zero alone is amazing. Running the cabaret is more fun than anyone would have guessed. Racing the cars had me glued. I’ve played DBD for a few years now and it’s a great game full of toxic try hard survivors. Feels amazing to get those clutch killer wins on them. Both sides are super fun though. Already have Bugsnax. Ghost recon should be fun. I’ll be giving that a try.
I personally won’t benefit much from this month, but mannnn is it a hell of a month from those that will.
Includes Yakuza: Like A Dragon and the entire Kazuma Kiryu saga.
I already own all these digital+physical.So good to see more people will get to enjoy them.
Wonder why Fist of North Star isnt being added
It's early days but this new service is looking better and better. The full Yakuza series! And with the monthly games this month too. Fantastic month
That was the only Yakuza game I was missing. Might be the best month of all time for me.
I seriously lost my breath when I read this. YAKUZA IS quickly becoming my favorite PlayStation series. Just beat Yakuza 0 on LEGEND this week!
I'd rather have a simple HD collection of 2-5 to prepare myself for Yakuza 6 next year.
Of course Sega would want to push out as many Yakuza games as possible so people can play all of them on PS3 & PS4
Please inject it straight into my veins.
I'm glad Yakuza series deserves huge recognition.
