Whoah baby!

The whole series on one console! :)

[Obelisk92]

BANG BANG.
YOU SHOT ME DOWN, BANG BANG.

[hulk_bash1987]

This is amazing and I hope they announce it for a western release. But, why the hell havent they announced Ishin yet? I'm seriously considering just importing a copy and using a guide.

[RedDevils]

Nice My collection will be completed :) Even though I already owned all on PS2 and PS3 lol

[CaptainOmega]

That’s cool! The Yakuza series is taking off this gen.

[Femto]

The most amazing news

[Dark_Knightmare2]

Hell yeah! i knew they were going to do this. I’m still working my way through 0 then I have 1 remake to play im buying the remake of 2 in August and I’ll def be getting these whenever they bring them to the us

[ChiefofLoliPolice]

How far you gotten in 0?

[Dark_Knightmare2]

I think only chapter 4 I got sidetracked big time doing all the side stories

[Jayszen]

@ Dark_Knightmare2

You are playing it as you should - take your time and even play other games and dip into Yakuza, You will find that the game can last you a year if you want!

[Dark_Knightmare2]

Thanks man thats actually what I’ve been doing lol. I’ve had 0 since November and I’ll dip in play it for a few days than play other things but I always go back. I love exploring the world and finding the side stories which are so damn good especially how they can range from quirky as hell to heartfelt.

[Prince_TFK]

Awesome. Now if they all could come in one disc...or in a collector’s edition, I will be the first one in line to get it.

I’m glad this game is getting the recognition it deserves.

[showtimefolks]

One at a time since all 3 are coming at separate times so more like 3 disks but I don't mind as long we get this in the west

But if we get one collection in spring 2019 in the west than that would be awesome

[PhoenixUp]

And the hits just keep on coming. If Shenmue 1 + 2 HD weren’t enough for you, now you can also look forward to Yakuza 3, 4 & 5 remasters along with Yakuza Kiwami 2

[BlaqMagiq1]

DAY ONE!!!

[Nyxus]

Does this mean... Yakuza 5 physical?

[Samonuske]

I could cry T_T best news in a long time

[KingofGambling]

Yes please.

[Kosic]

Nice! Just done 0 and kiwami 1. Can't wait for 2 then all the way upto 6!

[JonTheGod]

Dead Souls please.

[theshredded]

Yep all games!

[PhantomS42]

YAY! Complete collection once Kiwami 2 comes out =D

[--bienio--]

Wow PS4 remastered race lol

[Majin-vegeta]

Sony has no control over 3rd party releases..but ateast were still getting plenty of 1st party support...you tried kiddo you tried

[Liqu1d]

Meanwhile Xbox are relying on OG Xbox games and 360 games rather than putting out quality new games.

[PhantomTommy]

Awesome news, they coming out the same time in the west?

[Xavi4K]

Best news ever now sega get this to Pc and Xbox

[showtimefolks]

Unless Ms pays big time sega just isn't interested in extra costs got what might amount to very minor sales

As a fan of yakuza this series deserves to be played by as many as possible

[Melankolis]

Mmm...give Xbox fans Yakuza Dead Souls instead, espescially US Xbox fans. They will eat any shooter games available.

Hahaha just kidding.

[chris235]

too bad that this franchise does not appeal to me. at all. but then again, even if it did i would ignore these releases: fact: everybody who is supporting rehashes, re releases or even sequels deserves the low quality standards of the gaming industry of today.

[BlaqMagiq1]

I will gladly support these and any other remasters that interest me. I sure hope you don't own any with that comment you made.

[Swiftfox]

I really wish Yakuza Kenzan would see a western release in some form. I was very curious of the game due to the time period it's set in, but was disappointed when it wasn't released outside of Japan for the Ps3.

[ErogeMaster]

No kenzan or ishin cause we really need those games.

[showtimefolks]

Ishin for west sega

And if they can make some game play improvements to dead souls because story wise it was legit

[CrimsonWing69]

Nice this will be Day 1 for me!

[P_Bomb]

Fantastic! Looks like anyone who missed anything, is now covered. All in one gen.

Personally, part 2 is the only numbered entry I haven’t played yet. Kiwami 2 will right that wrong!

[Dawknight316]

If only I had the time.

[GamingSinceForever]

Nice!

[lociefer]

Aweosome news, wish they were on 1 disk tho, but great news nonetheless

[Iltapalanyymi]

now nobody will have an excuse to not start this great series

[Majin-vegeta]

I hope each one comes on a steel book case.Woyld love to own the complete collection in them

[tulholdren]

Very nice hope it comes to the west.

[GrimReaperGamer]

This is bloody awesome, every Yakuza game from the main series all on one console :)

[Lexreborn2]

Well I was a bit hesitant about starting this and buying 6 because I wasn’t sure i’d get to play these titles without hooking up my ps3.

I will get started on the franchise after I finish Horizon

[DVAcme]

HELL. TO. THE. YES!!! The entire Kazuma Kiryu saga on one console! Sega is friggin' crushing it! Even if it doesn't get released stateside, the Hong Kong versions of Japanese games usually have English subtitles, and the PS4 is region-free, so I'll definitely import if that's the case :)

[Majin-vegeta]

Yea im not gonna wait for West announcmenet.If they give pyshical version ill buy them over seas asap

[LOGICWINS]

Is this a dream?? Someone slap me right now?!??! 😢😢😢

[Majin-vegeta]

[LiViNgLeGaCY]

This is amazing news!!

[TheOttomatic91]

First Shenmue 1 and 2 and now this? My life is complete, bravo Sega bravo 👏

[PCgamer98]

Damn! Day one for all of them baby!

[Movefasta1993]

I want a physical copy of 5

[KingofGambling]

Same here.

[Tobse]

Cant stop the milk

[Pastemaniak]

Best news of the day!

[IamTylerDurden1]

Sega is pushing Yakuza hard. They continue putting out quality games.

[OpenGL]

Already played them on PS3 but good for people that want to go back and experience them. Now localize Ishin and Hokuto! Also, what about Dead Souls? It wouldn't be that bad if it had updated controls and a better framerate.

[Majin-vegeta]

I think it's given at this point Hokuto will.come.

[DafunkyRebel]

I hope they’ll still Kiwami Yakuza 3 and 5 those were the best ones

[FullmetalRoyale]

This is just what I wanted to hear.

[isarai]

Buying all

*reads article*

Doesnt mention western or physical release, please release these physically in the us. I think ill die if they dont

[GamesMaster1982]

Excellent news for anyone that have not played them, I still have 3,4,5 and Dead Souls on my PS3 so don't really need them again. But defo great for people who don't or have never owned a PS3. Just on finishing 6 up for the Plat now, excellent series. Sega really are on a comeback mission latley first Shenmue 1 and 2 now all these.

[DafunkyRebel]

Already finish 0 and kiwami, I want to play 6 sooooo badly but I can’t spoil the story for myself just hope the remaster for 3,4,5 comes out soon

[DafunkyRebel]

Now if only they could translate the Samurai one and bring it to the US that’d be great

[Jayszen]

Lovely,

Everyone can enjoy the Yakuza series in the following order:

Yakuza 0, Yakuza Kiwami, Yakuza Kiwami 2 (out Aug 2018), Yakuza 3 (remastered), Yakuza 4 (remastered), Yakuza 5 (remastered), Yakuza 6 and thereafter Yakuza 7.

Yakuza 5 was released on the PS3 but only as a digital download. 3 & 4 were excellent. 5 was good and had an unusual story leading directly to Yakuza 6.

All is right in the gaming world. We will soon have all the main Yakuza titles on one platform.

[Action GO FIGURE]

Holy ***********

[Tankbusta40]

OMG!!!! I've been asking for this since I got into the series late!!! Amazing!!!

[Flewid638]

And to think.....I only played the first 2 back on PS2.

PERFECT timing!

[SaiyanFury]

YES!!!!!!!!
