Lock if old or not thread worthy.

 

[Eldon]

we're getting Yazuza 0 on PS4 next year, right?

 

[Lurgan1337]

oh my god, they do know how to tease.

please release everything in Europe for us peasants of the Old World!

 

[El Topo]

More games at E3 than Nintendo. How the mighty have fallen.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

yup with an EU release as well!

 

[Eolz]

Good to see! Hopefully it gets some good press and pushes Sega to do more for this franchise in the west...

Yep, 2017 for Europe and NA.

 

[EvilKatarn]

I have not been following that whole Atlus vs European publishing branches ordeal at all.

Is Atlus presumably having reign over distributing Yakuza in the west now a bad thing for me or not?

That's a pretty strong lineup from Atlus. All games shown are confirmed purchase as it is.

 

[olimpia84]

Day fucking one just like I did with Yakuza 5. I believe this one will have a physical release which is even better.

 

[kewlmyc]

Atlus hitting it out of the park this year. I wonder how big their booth is going to be, especially if all 3 titles have playable builds.

More games at E3 than Nintendo. How the mighty have fallen.

Ouch...

 

[vall03]

Fuck! This means that there's no chance for Etrian Odyssey V this year. Dammit! I was hoping for a 2016 chance for a US release. Oh well, gotta wait until 2017 then, but it still sucks.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

bought

I only made it to chapter 1, part 3 in Yakuza 5 after spending 20 hours doing the taxi storyline


fuk

Sega europe are most likely bringing it here in europe

 

[Black Republican]

i know Atlus is Sega now but they wont even publish their own game?

bruh

 

[Rymuth]

Oh my god!

Look at my face~ JUST LOOKATIT!

I'm so hyped right now!

 

[Eolz]

Atlus won't publish it in Europe, and so far, both together has certainly not been better than them alone in the past.
But who knows for the future, they're "working on it"...

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Edit: Wait, nvm.

That's odd, Sega Europe's booth is right next to Atlus', so I would figure that that's where the game would be shown off.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

is Yakuza 0 a prequel or a port?

 

[DJIzana]

Definitely double dipping on Yakuza 0 (already own the Japanese version) and I reeeeally can't wait for 6. I imagine we can expect to see the same for 6 when/if that gets announced for the West.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

is Yakuza 0 a prequel or a port?

its a prequel

Yakuza Kiwami is a remake of Yakuza 1

 

[matrix-cat]

is Yakuza 0 a prequel or a port?

Prequel to Yakuza 1. There's also Yakuza Kiwami, a full remake of the original game, which we'll hopefully get in the West at some point. Probably 2018

 

[dreamfall]

MY GOD YES! YES!

Hoping for some amazing packaging and bonuses!

 

[Eolz]

Do they even talk to each other?

is Yakuza 0 a prequel or a port?

Prequel that was also on PS3 in Japan.

 

[Dwight Schrute]

Is 0 a new game or a remake of the old ones ? Neve tried this series and might as well start with this one.

EDIT: Think I got my answer just a few posts above. So prequel it is.

 

[EvilKatarn]

New game.

 

[JetSetRadio]

Stay far away from my yakuza games atlus.

 

[firehawk12]

Well, I was wondering why Atlus didn't do 5. It makes sense to use the localization label to put the game out though. I wonder if Sony is still involved in any meaningful way?

 

[Son Of Sparda]

I hope this game gets a trailer at Sony's presser. Yakuza is one of those series that desperately needs the spotlight.

 

[potatohead]

I need all the Yakuza games.

All of them!

Thank you ATLUS!

 

[Perfect Cha0s]

Atlus is going to have a pretty sick booth this year :O

 

[TheDarkKnight774]

Awesome. The one I really want is Yakuza Kiwami.

To have the first game with Japanese VO?? A dream

 

[Napalm_Frank]

yup with an EU release as well!

Unlike some other game I could name.

 

[Li Kao]

I seem to recall a time when Sega was one of the publishers that refused to let external companies handle their games. And while I'm all for Atlus doing so, the mighty have indeed fallen here. A free fall.

 

[NightShift]

Great, Yakuza needs as much support as possible. I need Yakuza 6 goddammit.

 

[Eddyhdzg]

Stay far away from my yakuza games atlus.

They might be the reason we might even get them anymore, so I wouldn't say that.


I hope we somehow get Yakuza 6 before 2018 ends... sigh.

 

[Zukkoyaki]

Atlus' current slate is probably their best ever. Persona 5, Yakuza 0, SMTIV:A, KOF XIV, Odin Sphere... And future titles like EO:V, 13 Sentinels, and their unannounced games they teased a few months back.

 

[HarryKS]

Most excellent news.

 

[Eolz]

I seem to recall a time when Sega was one of the publishers that refused to let external companies handle their games. And while I'm all for Atlus doing so, the mighty have indeed fallen here. A free fall.

Well, Atlus is not an external company.

 

[Li Kao]

Well, Atlus is not an external company.

Eh, you're right. Brainfart.

Sega been working with external companies since the Saturn days. Shining Wisdom was localized by Working Design.

 

[matrix-cat]

I hope we somehow get Yakuza 6 before 2018 ends... sigh.

I feel like the absolute best case, one-in-a-million scenario at this point is 0 in early 2017, Kiwami in December 2017, and 6 in December 2018. Maybe bumped to 2019. By which time there'll be like six more RGG games out in Japan

[MaximumSpider]

ATLUS blowing up this year

 

[Eddyhdzg]

If they are going to take that long then I hope they skip Kiwami.

Unless they make a Kiwami 2, which we would need... ASAP!

 

[Junior Mint]

Man really have to wait until 2017?? Damnit

 

[sublimit]

Will this get a physical release?

 

[delSai]

Will this get a physical release?

Yes!

 

[JehutyRunner]

Unlike some other game I could name.

Etrian Odyssey V?

Spoiler

I know, I know...

 

[Spieler Eins]

Since Atlus/Sega are gearing up, I'm hoping for eventual localisation news of 13 Sentinels and Valkyria Azure Revolution. I can deal with the eventual shit treatment of EU, as long as their games aren't on some archaic legion locked machine (like SMT4:A unfortunately).

 

[JustCheezze]

...And I hope they announce Kiwami at E3.
Then announce Yakuza 6 at PSX.


PLEASE!
