Discover Yakuza: Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties
Yakuza: Kiwami 3 / Yakuza 3 Side Story: Dark Ties brings together two compelling narratives that explore themes of loyalty and rivalry.
Yakuza: Kiwami 3 reimagines the iconic story that debuted in 2009, featuring the protagonist
Kazuma Kiryu as he battles to defend the bonds he holds dear amidst a backdrop of Okinawa and Tokyo. With enhanced graphical fidelity, deeper storytelling, and various gameplay enhancements, players will witness Kiryu’s evolution both as a fighter and a protector.

Dark Ties introduces a fresh storyline featuring
Yoshitaka Mine, previously portrayed as a formidable opponent to Kiryu. The narrative delves into Mine’s journey from a venture capitalist to his entanglement in the underworld, portraying a gripping tale of ambition and the pursuit of power.
