Some of you may recall a few years ago I went through and listed all of the Yakuza games with their Japanese release dates to see how long a localization announcement usually takes from SEGA America. Now that we’re just a few days from the launch of Yakuza 6, Kiryu’s final game, and a day after the announcement of both Kiwami and Yakuza 6 coming west. I thought it would be fun to have a new look at the turnaround time for our favorite series.

Again these are comparisons for the announcement date in the west to the day they were released in Japan. It’s amazing to see how far SEGA has come with yakuza 6 setting a new record with -5 days!

Thanks to all the fans that have kept the flames burning for this series as long as you have. This is your pay off.
