Recently, it was confirmed that Alan Wake 2 will not have a physical release, as Remedy will only distribute digital copies. It seems that this trend could extend to other games that are on the way and could affect SEGA fans.
The company revealed this week a trailer and release date for Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, Kazuma Kiryu's long-awaited adventure for Yakuza fans. According to recent reports, this new release will not have physical copies, at least in our region.
Like a Dragon Gaiden would debut only in digital in North America
.According to Kamurocho Bros, a YouTube channel specialized in the saga, the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has not yet registered a rating for Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name, which is necessary for a physical release in America.
For such reason, the source believes that the game will only be distributed in digital format in our region. The situation is clearer in Japan and other Asian countries, where the physical and digital release of the game has already been confirmed.
Kamurocho Bros believes in the possibility that such physical copies will not include texts at least in English, so it would be impossible to have a physical version of the game that fans in America can enjoy.
It is important to note that SEGA has not commented on the matter or confirmed the absence of a physical release. So it would be best to wait for the studio to clarify the situation.
If the information is confirmed, it will undoubtedly be bad news for fans, who will surely raise their voices as in the case of Alan Wake 2. We will keep you informed about it and we will share with you any new information that comes up in these days.
Hey @playasia. Will the Japanese disc version have English audio and subs as an option?
