Yakuza 2 remake coming to PS4, according to PSN Store leak

Fancy a Yakuza 2 remake? Then you’ll be pleased to know that SEGA is reportedly working on converting the PS2 Yakuza game for PlayStation 4!

SEGA is developing a Yakuza 2 remake for the PlayStation 4, according to a listing on Taiwan’s PlayStation Store.

Eagle-eyed users on NeoGAF spotted the page for Yakuza Kiwami 2 overnight, although the listing was quickly removed. However, according to a translation of the page, the remake of the action-RPG will utilise the same engine as Yakuza 6. 

The PlayStation Store listing contains a release date of December 7, 2017, although this could very well just be a placeholder. SEGA has yet to issue an official statement on Yakuza Kiwami 2, although we expect to hear something soon enough.

This month saw the western release of Yakuza Kiwami, a full remake of the original 2005 gangster-’em-up built from the ground-up for modern hardware. The game was previously released in Japan back in 2016.

They are considering doing remasters of 2,3,4,5.
Meaning you ll be able to play 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 on the PS4 (eventually, if they remaster them all for PS4).

No port begging, please.

OT: Pretty much guaranteed I suppose! Would be great to have when getting into the series.

edit: The whole goddamn series might be possible to play on PS4, wow O.O

if Sega follows through on their plans to remaster 2,3,4,5.

You ll be able to play Yakuza 0-6 on 1 system, with the remasters & new games in the series on one platform.

PS4 is going to hold "a special place in their hearts" console for Yakuza fans.

You posted this just as I was editing my post

I'm now happy to have not bought them on the cheap for PS2 just to shove into a backlog.

Heck, I don't do that with any active series anymore.

It seems like they plan to pace remakes so that one could potentially follow the whole series from the beginning, which is very good because I've only played 0 (and a bit of 4).

It seems this game will use Yakuza 6's engine, really looking forward to seeing it
