Debuting on PlayStation 3 in 2009, Yakuza 3 returns, revitalized with cutting-edge technology. This evolved edition brings Okinawa to life, featuring more intense battles, added cutscenes that bring depth to the story, and minigames chock-full of replay value. Kiryu’s back in the brawl, continuing the fight to protect those he holds dear.
This title also includes Dark Ties, which stars Yoshitaka Mine, Kiryu’s adversary.
Follow Mine on his journey from working as a venture company’s founder to becoming a full-fledged yakuza member. After losing everything, Mine sets off in an attempt to form a connection that would fill the void in his heart.
In Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties, you can enjoy the passionate drama of two men — “Kazuma Kiryu” and “Yoshitaka Mine” — all in one game.
After the Omi Alliance conflict, Kazuma Kiryu leaves the Tojo Clan in Daigo Dojima’s hands and moves to Okinawa with Haruka. There, he spends his days running Morning Glory, an orphanage tied to his foster father, Shintaro Kazama.
However, a government-sponsored resort deal threatens his newfound peace.
Morning Glory is caught in the crossfire, a Tojo Clan succession dispute erupts, and a conspiracy engulfs the political world.
When the maelstrom of conflicts converges, Kiryu steps into the fray once more.
In Yakuza 3 Kiwami, Kiryu has two fighting styles at his disposal: the Dragon of Dojima Style and Ryukyu Style.
The Dragon of Dojima Style transforms you into an unstoppable force of nature. This style has been completely revamped, boasting the most diverse moveset in the series.
The Ryukyu Style utilizes traditional Okinawan weaponry, allowing for an exhilarating and technical playstyle. Master the 8 available weapons to dish out devastating attack combos.
At the Morning Glory Orphanage in Okinawa, you can experience “Life at Morning Glory” content that lets you enjoy the daily life of Kiryu and the children.With the team battle content “Bad Boy Dragon”, you can fight alongside a local ladies’ team to protect the streets of Okinawa.
In Downtown Ryukyu and Kamurocho, there are plenty of ways to cut loose.
Pose for the perfect shot at the Print Club, aim for strikes in bowling, and enjoy a series of other staple minigames—including golf, darts, karaoke, UFO Catchers, gambling, and mahjong!
The year is 2007.
Yoshitaka Mine is the successful founder of a startup company, but he loses everything when his colleagues stab him in the back.
Wandering aimlessly through Kamurocho, he witnesses a gruesome conflict between yakuza.
The sight of the subordinates sacrificing themselves for their boss was everything Mine had been longing for—a bond that transcended material gain. The survivor of this assault is Daigo Dojima, the sixth chairman of Japan’s largest yakuza clan.
Hoping to find such a bond himself, Mine decides to acquaint himself with Tsuyoshi Kanda, a Tojo clan lieutenant.
Witness Yoshitaka Mine’s story, from his first steps into the criminal underworld to his ascent through the ranks of the Tojo Clan.
Mine wields a stylish fighting style based on shootboxing.
He waits for his foes to slip up, beating them down using a string of elegant combos. You can also freely sweep through the air to toy with your enemies.
Additionally, Dark Awakening will completely transform your moveset, allowing you to unleash a barrage of brutal strikes and a dark special move that can knock the life right out of your opponents.
Kamurocho, Tokyo
The city that never sleeps; a place where greed and desire run rampant.
Visitors always find themselves captivated by the restaurants, bars, and amusement facilities that line its streets. It is home to the Nishikiyama Family offices and other key locations.
In addition, unique content such as the “Kanda Damage Control” which aims to turn Kanda into a charismatic figure, and the exclusive battle spot “Underground Fight Club” for Dark Ties, where you can enjoy battles with various rules, are also available.
A plethora of minigames can be found throughout Kamurocho. Watch as the typically stoic Mine takes on billiards, the batting center, darts, and other series staples! You won’t want to miss his rendition of the fan-favorite karaoke track, “”Baka Mitai!””
You can also play minigames alongside Tsuyoshi Kanda at certain venues. Prepare to discover a whole new side of Mine you’ve never seen before!
