Yakuza 5 to release Westward mid-November

SEGA has announced that Yakuza 5 is on track to release in both Europe and North America in mid-November if everything continues as planned.
 
SEGA has stated that there have been some localisation problems concerning the Japanese text that wouldn’t switch out for English, and that they had to dig through the source code to be able to change it which took more time than expected. You can read more about it in their blog post where they also recommend 5 movies to get you in the mood for the release. I’m glad to hear that SEGA are taking the time to polish Yakuza 5 though as I’m incredibly excited for it!
 

SEGA previously announced that Yakuza 5 would come with all of the Japanese DLC included for free and it seems to be near release whether or not the mid-November date is met, and it’s about time!

I’ve been gaming since a very young age and although I can’t remember my very first game, I fondly remember enjoying Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and being giddy with joy once I beat Dr. Robotnik. My all-time favourite game is a tie between Persona 4 Golden and Final Fantasy IX. As you may have noticed, I have a love for JRPG’s although I dabble in all genres. My favourite genres are fighters, visual novels and, of course, JRPG’s. Follow me on Twitter @mitchjaylineham, and check me out on Open Critic as Mitch Jay.
