    At the risk of sounding like a Japanophile, I sincerely hope that only the TRAILER’S voice is english and everything else is still the lovable japanese in this awesome YAKUZA series. Although the battle sounds DID sound very Japanese so I may have nothing to worry about.

      I mentioned a similar thing myself when the last trailer was released. I usually use English VO’s for any game which let’s me, but by the end of Yakuza 3 I had grown used to hearing it only in Japanese. In fact, when I picked up Yakuza 1 and 2 (Y3 was my first), I was a bit shocked that they were in English.

      As you say though, the battle sounds seem Japanese and anyway – it’s likely they will allow a Japanese voice track even if the game does support English VO’s. Hopefully, anyway.

        Oh you played 3 first? Wasn’t it confusing without knowing 1 and 2? And yeah the english wasn’t that great in 1. Swearing like crazy =\= good writing. Glad they changed it to Jap in 2. It makes the world more believable as it is indeed Yakuza in Japan.
