Sega's Yakuza 0 is getting a special Director's Cut on Nintendo Switch 2, it has been confirmed.

Described as the "definitive edition of the critically acclaimed origin story" will feature new content for this edition.

Packing never-before-scene cutscenes, a 'Red Light Raid' online 4-player online mode with up to 60 unlockable characters, French, Italian, German and Spanish Text and an English voiceover, the game will launch alongside the new console on June 5th, 2025.

Originally released in 2015 on PS3 and PS4, Yakuza 0 is set in 1988 and serves as a prequel to the first game in the franchise. It would later come to Xbox One.

"At this point, the property's trademark formula is seriously starting to wear thin, but when it comes down to it, there's nothing quite like Yakuza 0," is what our friends over at Push Square said in an 8/10 review. "It combines unapologetically mature themes and violence with brilliantly dumb minigames and hysterical side quests, resulting in a thoroughly memorable experience. Bolstered by a gripping story that's packed with great characters, fans of Japanese games or even Japanese culture owe it to themselves to give this prequel a shot. Yakuza 0 is a fantastic place to start a love affair with Kamurocho's finest, and what's more, it's one of the best entries in the series to date."
