There was a little doubt as to whether or not Sega will localize Yakuza 4 for Europe and North America, but with the success of Yakuza 3 in those regions, number four got the go signal.

Although there’s no release date just yet, it’s possible that Sega will bring Yakuza 4 to the West in 2011, especially considering that Yakuza 3 was released here just a few months ago.

In the fourth game, Kazuma will be joined by three new playable characters, each with their own fighting styles. You can watch them show their moves here.
