Yakuza 6 gets the trailer treatment, looks incredible [Video]

Western audiences haven’t had much of a sniff at the Yakuza titles, but the upcoming game will finally make its way across the Atlantic and Pacific.

Yakuza 6 will also be a PlayStation 4 exclusive, and the first trailer for the long awaited Sega game has finally been outed. And it looks brilliant.

If you fancy your hand as playing a mobster in un-dubbed Japanese dialogue (we sure hope), this is probably the title for you. Yakuza 6 will also feature acting from the legendary Takeshi Kitan0 as well — that’s right, Takeshi’s Castle Takeshi. He also starred in the Battle Royale series too.

Ultimately, the game will be an open world action title, with physical combat highlighted in the trailer. We’re not too sure how other mechanics will play into it just yet, but you can have a gander at the first trailer below.

Yakuza 6 is scheduled for launch near the end of 2016, so there’s plenty of time to get excited, and practice your Japanese.
