Yakuza workshop teases Yakuza 8 setting as well as a different, unannounced video game

Yakuza 8 will certainly grab several years after the events of Yakuza: Like A Dragon, and also developer BYU Ga Gook is additionally working on a new video game outside the Yakuza as well as Judgment universe.

Workshop director Masayoshi Yokohama discussed BYU Ga Gook s plans in a current interview with Fujitsu (converted by Gets ), simply over a month after the confirmation of a straight Yakuza: Like a Dragon follow up along with the departure of workshop heads Toshihiro Satoshi and Daisuke NATO.

The tentatively entitled Yakuza 8 will be a follow-up established several years after the tale of Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Yokohama discussed, later on clarifying that lead personality Michigan Cayuga will return as the lead character of the next game in the collection. He additionally emphasized that the Judgment series stays really essential to the workshop.

We can add this tidbit to our tiny but expanding list of Yakuza 8 information, ideal together with the fact that future video games in the mainline collection will be turn-based adhering to the success of Like a Dragon, while the spinoff Judgment collection will maintain the action battle going.

Talking of Judgment, Yokohama verified that BYU Ga Gook has unannounced video games beyond both [the Yakuza and Judgment] series in the jobs. He really did not specify the number of video games are rotating up, nor do his translated statements explicitly state brand-new IP, but it s not tough to review between the lines. BYU Ga Gook is nothing if not your house of Yakuza; it functioned on some oddballs like Binary Domain name as well as a few Super Monkey Sphere video games, but macho guys defeating the dumb out of each other is the workshop s support. If it s not Yakuza or Judgment, it s practical to presume that it s servicing something brand new, though that is just a presumption in the meantime.
