What Is Yakuza All About?

Yakuza is an action-adventure game developed and published by Sega for PlayStation 2. It debuted in Japan in 2005 and internationally a year after. The story is about Kazuma Kiryu, a yakuza. He was imprisoned for 10 years for a crime he didn't commit. After being released, he is entangled with the infamous crime cartel. Gameplay is set in a fictional place called Kamurocho which is patterned after the Kabukicho district in Tokyo.

Here's The History Of Persona

Persona is an RPG that was originally developed and published by Atlus. It was actually a spin-off from Megami Tensei. The first game in the franchise was titled Revelations: Persona which was released in 1996. Nine console titles and four spin-off video games followed after that. The latest is Persona 5 which was released in Japan in 2016. Gamers are summoned by different characters in a battle and acquire their personality.

But Sega Did Not Confirm If They Are Already In Development

Clark did not confirm if Yakuza and Persona for PC are already in development. However, industry observers believe that his recent admission about Sega's plans for the two titles show how serious the game developer is in its effort to bring this project to reality.
