01Overview

Yakuza 3 is the third chapter in the Yakuza series, known for its gritty and often violent look at modern Japan. It first appeared exclusively on the PlayStation 3. Players take part in brutal clashes on the streets of Okinawa and in the city of Tokyo, a dangerous place where only the strongest survive. The yakuza wars are spreading to the tropical island of Okinawa. After leaving his last base, Kazuma Kiryu went to Okinawa and opened an orphanage named Asagao with Haruka. Together with the children they have taken in, the two slowly let go of the violent lives they led before. The happy days are short, because a shady deal involving the land on which Asagao is built pushes Kiryu and Haruka back to their old hometown and into fights with opposing yakuza groups. Political intrigue comes with the fighting. The game combines role-playing and beat 'em up elements in an open world, and it was developed by the CS1 Team and published by Sega in 2009.
