Yakuza 5 Developer Interview with Screenshots

By Peter Stojanov,

Lots of new media comes our way for the upcoming Yakuza 5 (PS3) Trophies, including an interview with the development team, a look into the gameplay mechanics for the game, and also some screenshots taken from the gameplay. The developers bring us news about how the combat and customization systems have been tweaked and improved since Yakuza 4. They also go on to show off the different mini-games that players will encounter throughout the sequel, including the ability to sing karaoke, perform dance battles, drive taxis, cook ramen, play Virtua Fighter 2 at CLUB SEGA, play UFO Catcher (Claw Machine), visit batting centers, or even have little conversations with people around the city to pass time and build relationships in-game.

Yakuza 5 will be released in the West for the PlayStation 3 in late 2015; this westernization will also include all of the downloadable content that is currently released in Japan, such as "Another Drama".

We've got the full list of Yakuza 5 (PS3) trophies - check the list for guides to unlocking them.
