The only other difference (apart from the name) announced so far is the addition of a brand new Pachislot mini-game. Toshihiro Nagoshi was quoted earlier saying that if Yakuza: Of the End came to the West, he would tweak the shooting mechanics to be more in line with modern 3rd person shooters that are typical to this side of the world. However, this has not been confirmed at this time. The game will also be Playstation 3 exclusive like its’ Japanese counterpart.

If you thought zombies were bad…meet the Yakuza! “We know how much people love Yakuza in the West and with Dead Souls being the latest and greatest in the franchise its only right we bring it to them closer to the Japanese release than ever.”– said Gary Knight, Senior Vice President of Marketing at SEGA.
