Yakuza: Dead Souls Game's Montage Video Streamed
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The IGN Entertainment media website began streaming a 66-second montage video of zombie kills from the upcoming PlayStation 3 game Yakuza: Dead Souls on Tuesday.
Sega released the zombie action-adventure game under the original name Ryū ga Gotoku: Of the End in Japan in June. Sega America posted a 70-second English announcement trailer for the game last Wednesday. The North American and European release of the latest installment in the Yakuza series is slated for March 2012.
When his neighborhood of Kamurocho is overrun by undead, Yakuza series hero Kazuma Kiryu fights back with the help of fellow gangsters Goro Majima, Shun Akiyama, and Ryuji Godai. The quartet is first equipped with standard firearms, except for Ryuji, who gets a minigun to replace one hand. Their arsenal expands to rival that of Dead Rising, as Kazuma's crew can use everything from chainsaws to tanks, bulldozers, and forklifts.
