A New Yakuza Community Discord Partnership Emerges!
It’s no secret our official discord has been in need of an overhaul for a while. So after much deliberation we’re partnering with the Subsidiary of the Tojo Clan discord to become our new home. It’s sad to see the old one get put aside but for the continued growth of the site and bringing all the Yakuza fan communities together having a one stop place where everyone can hangout and exchange ideas (and memes) with other fans is a no brainer. Thanks to all the guys that are working hard to make this partnership happen Yakuza truly has the best community out there!
With any luck we’ll be getting partnered with discord themselves to make the service even better. So if you’ve been on the fence about joining an awesome community now’s a great time to jump on and have some amazing discussions with other fans. I’ll be jumping in from time to time so I look forward to hanging out with you guys some more in the coming months as we grow even bigger!
Over the next few weeks we’ll have some more major announcements as we head towards the release of Yakuza 6!
(Thanks Olsy for the awesome Yakuza discord logo!)

The Passage of Time
I’ve always considered this site to be a place for fans to share their Yakuza love. We used to be able to quickly reblog things through tumblr but now that fan promotion is a little harder to do. Luckily we’ve got a fantastic community that are still just as passionate as ever about seeing this series succeed in the west. We’re all separated around the globe but interacting through twitter, facebook and discord I’d consider all of you friends.
Yakuza fan Jack (@CreamyElephant) has been a loyal reader, and backer, for a while now and asked if it would be ok to share his thoughts on something that he finds the Yakuza series does almost completely uniquely for a video game series.
Make sure you get in touch and let Jack know what you think or please leave a comment.

Just curious if you were able to find out since my searches were pretty fruitless. Do we have any numbers on how well Yakuza 5 did once it was finally localized? I had my reserved pretty much since I was able, but I am curious to know how well it did after we fought for so long.
I’m afraid I haven’t seen any sales numbers but according to the Playstation blog it was the 5th...
