Yakuza's Kazuma enters the Binary Domain

by JC Fletcher on Nov 11th 2011 12:00AM

You'd think the team behind the awkward Yakuza: Of the End (coming here as Yakuza: Dead Souls) might want to hide its shooting pedigree in trying to market Binary Domain -- but we suppose the selling power of the charismatic Kazuma Kiryu outweighs gameplay concerns.

Fans who buy the first pressing of the Japanese version of Binary Domain will get the option to play as the Yakuza protagonist, who has somehow warped 100 years into the future to shoot robots. If you play on the government side, Kazuma will wear his flashy white suit; if you choose the resistance side, he'll don a guerrilla getup, complete with headband.

This game was just elevated to "must buy" for me.

That would be good to get this as a pre-order bonus stateside.

Doesn't the Japanese release run the risk of having absolutely no English? (unlike say, the Asia release for a game like Demon's Souls).

Sucks to be Japanese-language-challenged. -_-

At first when I saw the pic I was like "F Yeah Yakuza 5!!1"

Then I got disappointed.

Then I realized that any game with Kiryu in it has the potential of being a badass game.

Now I'm interested again.
