Over the last few days and weeks, the team at Studio Yakuza have been announcing a number of characters who will be making an appearance in the next installment of the Yakuza series – Yakuza: Ishin (Yakuza: Restoration). Some of these returning characters include Shun Akiyama (Playing the role of Niibori Matsusuke), Ryuji Goda (Playing the role of Masami Iwasaki) and Makoto Date (Playing the role of Nakaoka Shintaro) to name a few.
In his latest blog post, the games producer Toshihiro Nagoshi mentioned that they will have new information on the game. It is quite possible that Mr. Nagoshi will be announcing the consoles the game will be on given he previously said Yakuza 5 would be the last game on the Playstation 3.
This announcement coincides with the major Japanese press conference for Sony Computer Entertainment where some are expecting the consoles Japanese release date to be confirmed.
