E3 2018: 15 Announcements You Probably Missed

9. Yakuza 0 & Yakuza Kiwami Are Coming To PC

During the PC Gaming Show, Sega made the oddly low-key announcement that hit action games Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kiwami, which were released exclusively on the PS4 last year, are heading to PC this year.

Yakuza 0 will arrive in August and Kiwami a few months later, while both games will reportedly have 4K resolution and an uncapped framerate.

The Yakuza series has never released on PC before, but with the franchise's major surge in popularity over the last 18 months since 0's release, it makes a hell of a lot of sense to get it on another platform.

It'll be interesting to see whether or not the likes of Yakuza 6 and Yakuza Kiwami 2 follow suit, though, what with their using the updated Dragon engine and presumably being far more challenging to port to PC as a result. Fingers crossed.
