"A series of premium physical releases"
We've got some cool news to share about the Yakuza / Like a Dragon franchise today! Limited Run has announced that every game in the Yakuza series will be getting a physical version for Xbox (as well as PlayStation and PC), with pre-orders starting today for Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kiwami.
There are two versions you can pre-order for each of these - the Standard Edition or the Classic Edition. The latter contains a premium box, a physical soundtrack, a collectible acrylic standee that connects with other releases, character cards and more. If you specifically pre-order Yakuza 0 in any form, you also get a a special commemorative slipcase that will (eventually) hold all seven games. We think that's pretty awesome!

As mentioned, the commemorative slipcase confirms we'll be getting seven Xbox releases in total, starting with Yakuza 0 and working all the way up to Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. There are no dates for the rest as of yet, however.
Obviously this is a pretty expensive collection if you want to collect them all, but these are all absolute classics that we're extremely tempted by in physical form - especially considering the Classic Editions all connect with each other as well! We'll have to see if we've got some spare change hanging around the Pure Xbox offices...
