@1 deal with it. Zombies make games sell, almost as much as sex.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 02:57 PM
@3 learn to relax. It wasn't a negative comment. It was just stating the obvious. I wasn't putting anything down. Just a bit of fun.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 03:28 PM
Day 1 buy for sure. @3 If zombies make games sell almost as much as sex, imagine zombie sex, but just not this zombie. People also have to keep in mind this has been out in Japan for a while already as far as the zombies goWednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 03:35 PM
am I the only one who is unsure about this? I mean I absolutely love the Yakuza series as is, I have hard time seeing how zombies are going to fit into the equation.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 04:23 PM
@4 sorry bout that. Every topic on this I normally see TOO MANY ZOMBIE GAMES. Misread your post >.< @5 There is a zombie in dead island that is chained to a bed in just a bikini......that game is selling well lmao!Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 05:20 PM
This looks more entertaining than Dead Nation.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 05:44 PM
This just made my day!Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 06:47 PM
This is how you deal with zombies, no R.P.D., no CoD players, no John Marston, not even Ash from Evil Dead. You send in Kiryu, Majima, & Akiyama to do the job. They ALWAYS get it done.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 06:50 PM
@6 there is a Yakuza of the end demo in the JP PS Store, I played it & it rocked, I've loved the Yakuza series since the 1st one back in PS2 days.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 07:37 PM
@6 I've played the demo it's actually pretty fun to me at least. Looking forward to this since it's a rarity a game with zombies that isn't crap.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 08:06 PM
WHERE'S KENZAN!?!? Now that I've got that out of the way... glad to see this making it Stateside, and right around my birthday too!Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 09:50 PM
YES! Preordering the moment it's possible to do so! I played the demo and loved it.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 10:22 PM
Zombies=Buy for me lolWednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 10:26 PM
Now if only Haruka would stop getting kidnapped all the damn time.Wednesday, October 05, 2011 @ 11:30 PM
@6 Well, I'm pretty sure it's probably non-canon, so I doubt there's much to worry about.Thursday, October 06, 2011 @ 12:07 AM
Can't wait for it.Thursday, October 06, 2011 @ 03:42 AM
Awesome! And again it will be released at march (Yakuza 3 and Yakuza 4 was also released at this month).Thursday, October 06, 2011 @ 08:36 AM
Yes, excellent! I don`t care how overplayed zombies are as enemies, this has the heart and soul of the regular Yakuza games. Take my money, Sega! I`ll happily pay whatever you`re asking for for more Yakuza!

SEGA has announced that Tokyo-based zombie-slaughtering Yakuza: Of The End is heading west next year under the new name of Yakuza: Dead Souls, complete with all of the Japanese release's DLC and a brand new mini-game called Pachislot. Taking the action to the red light district of Tokyo, you'll have to survive attacks from the undead and mutant hordes, playing as four of the best-known characters from the Yakuza series.
“We know how much people love Yakuza in the West and with Dead Souls being the latest and greatest in the franchise, it is only right we bring it to them closer to the Japanese release than ever,” said Gary Knight, Senior VP of Marketing at SEGA.
Featuring gunplay with an arsenal of pistols, machine guns and rocket launchers, you'll have to keep the zombies at bay, as well as contending with the Yakuza underworld. Check out the announcement trailer and first 13 screens for Yakuza: Dead Souls in the gallery, which is infecting the west in March 2012.
