Yakuza 4's remaster gets first gameplay and screens

Masayoshi Tanimura might look a bit different though.

Sega has just opened a new website for the remastered version of Yakuza 4, coming to Japanese PlayStation 4 players in January 2019, and there's good news, as we've got a new trailer and lots of screenshots to show how the remaster looks and plays.

Yakuza 4 is not just about Kazuma Kiryu, but also Masayoshi Tanimura, Shun Akiyama, and Taiga Saejima, and Gematsu explains that Hiroki Nariyima - who played Tanimura in the original game - is now retired and Sega had to remodel the character after the new actor, Toshiki Masuda.

If you remember, Sega announced remastered versions of Yakuza 3, Yakuza 4, and Yakuza 5 for PS4, and all of them will be available in Europe, so it's a good time to be a fan of the series. Which is your favourite though?
