This could definitely be real.
It's not like the over the top humorous elements and effects are alien to the even the Yakuza mainline franchise.

And remember they did make a zombie shooter spinoff.

That game is one of the biggest letdowns ever for me. I hated the controls sooooo much. Such a fun idea, utterly ruined by terrible design choices. I lasted maybe an hour before I stopped for good. Have to watch a let's play some day to see what I missed story-wise.

Best April Fool's Joke I've seen. They clearly put alot of effort into it, it appears to be in-engine, which means this might have been an actual working demo they built.

Yeah well Fighting EX Layer was originally an April Fool's joke and now you can buy it on PSN and there is plenty of DLC for it. TBH it looks a bit like the Persona UI so those devs might have helped them do this. I truely hate the combat system in the Yakuza series and no I do not consider it similar to Shenmue which I am highly anticipating.

are they english localizing this game? Also, have they announced a PS4 version because I thought Yakuza Online was PC only.

This actually looks really good!Makes me wish for a Yakuza with a turn based combat...



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

I can't find any actual gameplay that looks like this though.

Looks too good to be true, kinda like when FFXIII was first shown. Pretty cool, though. I'd like to see boundaries pushed a lot further in the turn based space.

I remember seeing it on a TGS event(i forgot the year) it seems like an android/IOS game at the time,

but seeing the PS Face buttons i do wonder now.
