According to a post on the SEGA Blog, the game is releasing a later than planned due to development bugs which "popped up in the localization."

The developers searched through the source code to find the issues, which apparently took more time than expected.

Yakuza 5 is has been available for pre-order on the PS Store for PS3 since August and it comes with all the DLC previously released in Japan.
