Famitsu’s latest edition apparently confirms that Sega’s highly popular action-adventure game, Yakuza 3, will release on Japan on February 26.

The game will cost ¥7980 and has fighting and singing in it. What more could you want.

Rumour for now. Thanks, PS3center.

This game looks AMAZING, far more impressive than anything I’ve seen on the PS3 so far. Or the 360 for that matter. Shame that I don’t speak Japanese, the translation is probably going to take ages :(

But… wasn’t Yakuza 3 Kenzan the one set in feudal Japan?
Where you play Musashi Miyamoto?
Is this another game? Because the other is already out…
Just don’t quite get it!

I thought that Yakuza 3 was that Samurai thing to… Maybe it was renamed at the last moment to ‘Yakuza: something-or-other’ so that this game could be the official N°3.

@Dimacorgan & Gekidama: No you guys are mistaken. The Yakuza game set in feudal Japan was always called Yakuza: Kenzan. Some people speculated that it was Yakuza 3 even though it had no ’3′ in the title, but it was definitely confirmed as being a ‘side-story’ when Yakuza 3 (the game you see here) was announced.
