Great news! The demo for Yakuza 4 is coming soon! Yakuza 4 was released back in March in Japan, but the USA version demo will be available on February 15th in North America and 16th in Europe. However it is only for Playstation Plus Subscribers.
Don't worry though if you aren't a subscriber because the demo will be available on Feb 22nd and 23rd in NA and Europe as well. The game is set to release March 15th in America and is an immediate sequel to Yakuza 3. While SEGA sort of screwed the pooch with Yakuza 3 having removed content it seems they are set to remedy that blunder this time with Yakuza 4.
For anyone not familiar with the Yakuza series just think of it as Grand Theft Auto set in Japan, but with a lot of focus on street brawling, dating, and some RPG elements. It's a recipe for awesome and you can get your taste soon.
Sega has released its financial statement for the 2023-24 fiscal year, and profits may be up, but it's mostly not down to video games.
SEGA has announced Fearless: Year of Shadow, a campaign that celebrates Sonic the Hedgehog and his brooding acquaintance, Shadow.
GamesIndustry.biz writes: "Relic is best known for the Company of Heroes and Dawn of War games, and recently developed the new Age of Empires for Microsoft. Relic will transition to an independent studio and will no-longer be part of the Sega group of studios.
The majority of the 240 job cuts are across Creative Assembly and Sega Europe, while there will be a ‘small number’ cut from Sega HARDLight. There was no mention of other Sega UK studios, including Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive."
Shame about Creative Assembly, they should have just been allowed to do an Alien Isolation sequel.
It was that garbage coh 3 that did them in only a special team can make a sequel worse in every way even though it was a 10 year gap and the same era.
Two Point Studios and Sports Interactive probably run on a shoe string budget so that fits into SEGA better lol
Can't wait for tomorrow. Downloading this, Stacking, the KZ3 demo, and the new Qore.
I'm loving PS+ right now.
he got disagrees because the demos not out till the 15th but that was just a mistake id say
