Play Yakuza 0 first. It's sort of meant to be the new first installment for newcomers.

Should have figured that out myself lol. Sometimes the solution is in front of your nose. €60 for three games is pretty nice. Especially with the relocalization.
$20 is already a steal for 2017's GOTY (is this a hot take? idk, it was goty though), but it's also only $12 on US PSN right now
I just saw there's now a digital bundle for 0, Kiwami, and Kiwami 2. $49.99
Poor 6 all by itself.

Wow...that's a steal. I bought Kiwami II at launch last year, only just started playing it this weekend, and have no regrets.
Absolutely, but I would recommend playing 0 first! 0 is hella cheap nowadays.
Physical in February, but you'll probably have to pre-order it.
The physical day one edition contains a PS3 case for Y5, for everyone who wants to fill in that missing gap in their PS3 collection :P
Huh. The preorder links just disappeared from the site.
The options for physical preorder (on the NA site) were Amazon US, Amazon CA, GameStop, and VGP.
Links didn't go anywhere but I'm glad I'm not stuck with using their own store or something

Dunno if this will work when the link goes live, but it might. (Adapted from German link.)
Also, this popped up:
Yakuza Origins (Oranges) Bundle - 0, K1 and K2.
Anyone know when GameStop (US) charges for preorders? I might want to grab a preorder at both Amazon and GS just in case something happens to one of them
Ishin? maybe. Kenzan? probably not unless they completely overhaul some really questionable material.
Still not available in Mexico. Come on Sega I want to give you money, despite not being able to play them until I get home and install it!
Confused at digital release date "as they come out"?? I want these games badly and will buy digital are they coming this year? Maybe the title means they will worldwide release. I had no idea 3/4/5 got a remaster.
I will finally have the series on 1 modern system. Absolutely amazing!!! Seeing this series go from dead in the US, to having everything release here, is one if the best things to happen in gaming in the last several years :)

Makes no sense for a mass retail release (depending on how limited it is). This isn't like LRG catering to a tiny niche of fans putting up a limited amount of PS3 orders for the game, these will be sold in shops and as the series isn't exactly a powerhouse in sales, asking them to press PS3 disc for an unknown extra cost seems like a dangerous way to handle the series. I want to see more games get physical releases in the series, not less. Its a cool nod for old fans of the series, nothing less.
And besides, including a PS3 release of Yakuza 5 when you have the PS4 version right there is probably the most pointless thing ever. Its so hilariously out of date compared the far superior PS4 port that it'd literally be a waste of money to bother doing that.
Yakuza 3 out today
Yakuza 4 out October 29 2019
Yakuza 5 out February 11 2020
You buy the bundle, get access to Yakuza 3, and get the next two games on their release date without paying any extra
The Yakuza 3 site has updated with buttons to Amazon, GameStop, etc., but the buttons don't have any links in them.
You are also getting Yakuza 5 on disc so just stick that badboy in it and it will feel complete.
It doesn't sound like it's a mass release though. It's gonna be very limited.
Pretty much, it's extra needless cost for disc printing...the case is a novelty gift for long time (and long-suffering) Western fans.
I started this series at 3 and have been told by the Yakuza era community that it's basically the worst game in the series
Wait for them to completely misjudge the physical edition amount and not even satisfying 20% of all people who desperately want to buy it.
