Yakuza 3,4, and 5, together as the Yakuza Remastered Collection, is out now on Xbox consoles and PC. That includes Steam, and unlike the latest Yakuza: Like A Dragon, it’s available here in Asia.
Now folks who has just jumped in the Yakuza series can play the entirety of the mainline Yakuza games starring the Dragon Of Dojima himself, Kazuma Kiryu.
Yakuza 3 sees Kiryu trying to live a normal life away from the criminal underworld, only to be reeled back in. Yakuza 4 is the first in the series to feature multiple playable characters. If one buff Japanese dude is not enough, you will be switching between four buff Japanese dudes here, with a wild interconnected plot.
Yakuza 5 features five playable characters, but it’s not all buff Japanese dudes. You get to play as Kiryu’s surrogate daughter Haruka as she lives a career of becoming an idol, swapping random battles against thugs with dance battles. The disco dance battles in Yakuza 0 didn’t seemingly came out of nowhere.
Yakuza 3,4,5 are all priced at RM74 a piece on Steam, with the Yakuza Remastered Collection bundle priced at RM148.74. On the Microsoft Store, the games are RM86 a piece, and the 3-in-1 bundle is at RM172.
Curiously, you can also buy the Yakuza Remastered Collection for the Xbox consoles using Ringgit Malaysia too. Weird, considering that, technically, the Xbox consoles are not available in Malaysia unless you import them. The Xbox consoles and Windows 10 PC version are separate purchases, however.
The Yakuza Remastered Collection is also available today on Xbox Game Pass, both on console and PC.
