Sega: Yakuza Ishin Is Not Coming to the West, No XB1 Version

Leonid: Will Yakuza Ishin ever get a western release considering the fact that it’s the #1 PlayStation 4 game in Japan?

There are currently no plans at this time.

Leonid: Do you think the game will be ported to the Xbox One? If not, why?

There are currently no plans at this time.

Looks like for once, everybody has been owned.

You know sega why give us a taste just to take it away.The last numbered game that was released over the west wasint even the end of that characters story its still going.At least cut us off when it ends.

See also: Shenmue

"There are currently no plans at this time." does not translate to "is not coming to the West." It just means they have no plans at this time. They could release it later.

I guess since we're not getting Yakuza Ishin (even though we never gotten Kenzan as well) it would be nice of Sega to confirm if we're getting Yakuza 5 or not, but I don't see them doing that either.

Nope, I'll import. thank you very much.

Probably the best option for uncut experience, not like 3 when things were censored and cut out.

Any plans for import?

I don't see what all the fuss is about, watched YouTube videos, looks like an early PS3 game that might have originally been designed for the PS2

if it was coming to the West though I'd imagine it'd get that year late to localize treatment that every other Yakuza game has gotten

Sega are terrible drug dealers.

So nothing's been announced and this is a typical PR hush-hush statement.

Waste of a thread.

lol @ lems & cows.

If I ever decide I want it, I can import with a few clicks. Ownage denied.

Would rather have a new Shenmue game than any of the Yakuza games.

But but I want Shenmue :(

their loss

Never loose HOPE guys!

Oh, I know the reason. The last Yakuza games didn't sell well in the west.

Sega has turned into crap....and they own persona....................

Classic Sega not liking money and sales I see still. On their head be it.

I don't understand why sega likes to suck so much. It's not healthy.

Already own it so don't care. Maybe this will help gamers realize that companies aren't charities. SEGA brought over 5 Ryu Ga Gotoku games and they sold like ****. If anyone is to blame it's gamers not SEGA. Also, why the **** would SEGA bring Ryu Ga Gotoku to Xbox One? Japan isn't even going to buy the console.

Still waiting for Yakuza 5, Not holding my breath.

True, glad I supported them.
