Since
announcing plans to bring
Yakuza 2 stateside last September, Sega has been noticeably quiet concerning the sequel, which was first released in Japan in 2006 and will be making its European debut later this year. However, while Sega may be mum, online retailers
Gamestop and
Gamefly have given us reason to keep our imaginary ties to the Japanese mafia intact, with both listing
Yakuza 2 for release this September.
As Siliconera
points out, Gamestop's listing of the game at the criminally affordable price of $29.99 gives weight to suspicions that
Yakuza 2 will not be getting the original's
celebrity treatment, though if this means that the game could include the original Japanese voice overs, so much the better.
