Amy Duong — June 6, 2024 — Pop Culture
The Yakuza SEGA game series from Japan is being adapted into a live-action show by Amazon Prime. It will be streaming on Prime Video later this year on October 25th with three episodes and another batch of three episodes to follow on November 1st. The game started in 2005 and has since been adapted with over 20 titles and spinoffs throughout the years.
Yokoyama Masayoshi, writer of Yakuza, head of Pyugagotoku Studio, and executive producer speaks on the show, stating, "While the games let you experience their world through the subjective lens, this adaptation will be the ultimately objective way to enjoy the show. I have no doubt that fans of the series will be drawn to how it brings the games to life and adds new surprises. Newcomers, I'm sure will find themselves invested simply in the gritty realism of the show."
