The definitive edition of the legendary prequel that started it all. Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut brings Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima’s rise through the neon‑lit underworld of 1988 Japan to PS5 with new content, enhanced visuals, and expanded features.
This edition adds 26 minutes of never‑before‑seen cutscenes that deepen character backstories, a brand‑new English dub option, and the all‑new Red Light Raid online co‑op mode (up to 4 players, 60 playable characters) — arriving via post‑launch update.
Fight, hustle, and survive in Kamurocho and Sotenbori during Japan’s bubble era. Switch between three unique fighting styles per character, master brutal Heat Actions, and lose yourself in the series’ trademark blend of crime drama and absurd side activities — from cabaret club management to disco dancing.
