Yakuza 0 now available

SEGA has announced the release of Yakuza 0, the pre-quel to the long-running crime series.

Yakuza 0 tells the origin stories of Kazuma Kiryu, the rising Dragon of Dojima, and Goro Majima, before he's known as the Mad Dog of Shimano, as they fight, hustle, flirt, and dance their way through the seedy underbelly of Japan. Taking place in a chilly but electric Kamurocho, Tokyo in December 1988, Kiryu's story follows his steady ascension up the ranks of the Dojima yakuza crime family until he gets blamed for a debt collection gone wrong.Meanwhile, Goro Majima is running a popular cabaret in Osaka, but he wants more than anything to rejoin the yakuza clan that ousted him.

Free DLC is also planned in the near future. Each batch contains content such as new outfits, weapons, items, and crafting components. The first DLC pack is already live and three additional batches will be made available every week until Feb. 14.

Yakuza 0 is available exclusively on PlayStation 4.
