Yakuza 3 (Ryu ga Gotoku 3 in Japan) just came out in February, and Sega has already officially announced the sequel. The official
Ryu ga Gotoku site revealed that a new PlayStation 3 installment is on the way. Other than the platform and the title,
Ryu ga Gotoku 4: Densetsu wo Tsugu Mono (
Succeed the Legend), few details are known. We can
speculate that since the series is already two deep on the PS3 and we haven't seen either of those in North America, this one is also going to remain in Japan. How does Sega have time to make all these huge games so quickly anyway?
If you'd like to see what some of the
characters will look like in the new open-world title,
GAME Watch (via
Kotaku) has images of actors Hiroki Narimiya and Kenta Kiritani recording voice work and sitting for motion capture. Detailed 3D models of the actors will appear in the game.
