Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties
Yakuza Kiwami 3 tells the story of Kazuma Kiryu and his adoptive daughter Haruka Sawamura who have planted roots in the tropical Japanese prefecture of Okinawa to run the Morning Glory Orphanage. But when both the government and the yakuza set their sights on beachfront property, Kiryu finds that to defend the things he cares about, he must fight and sacrifice. Can Kiryu rescue the orphanage and escape his past for good? Rebuilt from the ground up, Yakuza Kiwami 3 evolves several aspects of the beloved title with new cutscenes and new side experiences to make Okinawa and Kamurocho even more exciting and entertaining. Additional highlights include:
- Ultimate Brawler Experience – Players can now swap between two powerful fighting styles: "Dragon of Dojima: Kiwami," a brawling action style overflowing with power and an unmatched sense of dominance featuring the largest number of attack techniques in the series' history; and the new "Ryukyu Style," a thrilling and technical weapon-based action style inspired by traditional Okinawan weapon arts that allows players to unleash a wide variety of combo techniques using eight different types of weapons. Both battle styles combine for the ultimate brawler experience!
- "Legendary Baddie, Bad Boy Dragon"– a team battle mode where players aim to build the ultimate biker gang and fight alongside the Ryukyu Gal Gang, a group of lady bikers out to protect the streets of Okinawa.
Dark Ties is a brand-new story that features Yoshitaka Mine, one of Kiryu's formidable foes from Yakuza 3 as the protagonist. This story depicts the events leading up to Yakuza 3, shedding light on Mine's origins, his search for unwavering bonds, and the path that led him, once the head of a venture company, to be immersed in the world of the yakuza. Highlights include:
- All-New Experience – for the first time ever, fans can play as Mine. Battle foes with a stylish yet refined combat system centered around boxing, explore the streets of Kamurocho, and see the usually cool-headed Mine cut loose and have fun.
- "Dark Awakening" mode – unleash Mine's inner darkness in battle, triggering a rampage with ruthless, relentless combos, and finishing foes with a decisive strike infused with the power of darkness.
- "Hell's Arena" – an underground fight club where players can enjoy fights under a variety of unique rules. In "Survival Hell" mode, players will fight their way through an underground dungeon, enduring relentless assaults from numerous hunters, to reach the goal and clear the challenge.
