SEGA and Ryu Ga Gotoku’s Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut is coming to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam on December 8, according to the newly launched Steam page. Save data from Yakuza 0 does not carry over to Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut, and there are no upgrades, as stated on Steam.
Serving as a definitive edition of Yakuza 0, Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut for Nintendo Switch 2 includes new never-before-seen story cutscenes with insight into key events and backstories. A new “Red Light Raid” online multiplayer mode will be available with 60 unlockable and playable characters. In this new mode, players can join their friends and take out hordes of enemies. In addition, the game will run at 4K 60 FPS on Nintendo Switch 2.
Final Weapon reviewed Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut and gave it a 4 out of score, noting that the game is “the definitive version of the 2015 Yakuza prequel from the PlayStation 4. Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut offers several new cutscenes, the new Red Light Raid multiplayer mode and English voice-overs, which are all on top of an already great action game with a captivating story. Although the cutscenes can be hit or miss, and players who already own Yakuza 0 may have already had their fill, the game is a great time on Switch 2, thanks to its solid 4K and 1080p 60 FPS performance.”
