Thanks to IGN, we can look at an English E3 demo of Yakuza 6: The Song of Life for roughly fifteen minutes.
This video is the first time we can see the game in a localized format. Quoting SEGA’s overview: „Kazuma Kiryu, the Dragon of Dojima (and the main protagonist of SEGA’s long-running Yakuza franchise) will find out exactly how much people are willing to sacrifice for family – be those ties through blood or bond – when Yakuza 6: The Song of Life releases in the West. The game is coming to consoles only on PlayStation 4, and thanks to the new “Dragon Engine,” is the most advanced Yakuza title to date. From the unparalleled realism of the new setting of Onomichi, a beautiful, sleepy port town in Hiroshima Prefecture, to the latest evolution of Kamurocho, the biggest red-light district in Tokyo, Yakuza 6 is the ultimate iteration the game’s blend of gritty crime story, hyper-explosive combat, and all the vices and distractions those locales have to offer.”
Yakuza: Kiwami will predate its launch – the remake of the first game will launch in the Western regions on August 29, while Yakuza 6: The Song of Life only has an early 2018 launch window. Both games are PlayStation 4-exclusive.
