Yakuza Kiwami 2 is coming to PC next month

Sega has announced that Yakuza Kiwami 2 will get a PC release on Thursday 9th May.

For those that are unaware, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a remake of the 2008 PlayStation 2 game Yakuza 2 that uses the Dragon Engine. Yakuza Kiwami 2 first released for the PS4 in Japan in 2017 before making its way to these shores in August 2018, but the PC release will mark the first time that the game has been available on any platform other than a Sony console. The story follows series protagonist Kazuma Kiryu as he is forced back into action following the assassination of Yukio Terada, the Fifth Chairman of the Tojo Clan.

You can check out the trailer for the PC release in the tweet below. It features a very Japanese man apparently using the word “ain’t” (translated through subtitles), which I’m not sure is a literal translation.

Sega promises that the PC version of the game will feature “4K resolution, unlocked framerates, customizable controls, and robust graphics options.”, as well as “fan favorite minigames including updated versions of the Cabaret Club simulator and Clan Creator” and “new additions like an arcade port of Virtual On, golf bingo, and Toylets”. Pre-purchasing the game will also give you access to the Clan Creator bundle, which gives players rare leader cards, exclusive weapons, exclusive outfits, and bonus items.

Yakuza Kiwami 2 will release for PC on Thursday 9th May through Steam, and you can pre-purchase it right now for £24.99. There can only be one Dragon.
