The Yakuza series is finally coming to Nintendo Switch


The Yakuza series is finally coming to Nintendo Switch. The remake of the first game in the franchise releases on October 24.

Masayoshi Yokoyama, the head of the development team behind the series, once told GameSpot that Yakuza games would likely never come to a Nintendo console. As for the console’s kid-friendly image, well, that hasn’t entirely changed in the intervening years, but the Switch has made serious inroads with older gamers. The console is home to all kinds of mature and violent fare, from 2016’s Doom to Red Dead Redemption and Mortal Kombat 1.
