The 2010 PSP game Kurohyou: Ryu Ga Gotoku Shinshou, a spinoff of the Yakuza series, is now available to play with English subtitles thanks to a newly released fan project.
The fan group TeamK4L has released the Kurohyou English translation on its official website after delaying it out of 2022. You'll need a copy of the game to install the file on, but once that's done you'll be able to play the game and actually understand just what the heck is going on! Hooray for fans.
If you've been waiting for a long time to play Kurohyou in English, that's your cue to leave this page and go live your best life, but if you're here and you aren't as familiar with the lost Yakuza game, stick around for some context.
Kurohyou: Ryu Ga Gotoku Shinshou is a spinoff that eschews the traditional one-against-many brawling of the mainline Yakuza/Like a Dragon series for one-on-one fights similar to Def Jam Fight for NY. There's still a big, melodramatic narrative involving scheming crime families and inept law enforcement around the fictional district of Kamurocho, and the game is packed with classic Yakuza mini-games like hostess clubs, karaoke, and casino games, but the fighting is very different. Exploration is similar to Yakuza 1 and 2 where the camera is fixed in one position, transitioning into different areas of the map as you move through them.
It may not be considered one of the best Yakuza games ever, but Kurohyou was popular enough in Japan to spawn not only a 2012 sequel, which has already been translated by TeamK4L, but also a television series that aired in Tokyo in 2010.

A little way into the movie Gran Turismo, the unlikely brand extension of Sony’s sim racing games accidentally satirizes itself. “This whole thing is a marketing extravaganza!” excitable auto executive Danny Moore (Orlando Bloom) shouts at salty racing coach Jack Salter (David Harbour). They’re aboard a helicopter wheeling above a racetrack, where Salter’s students in the GT Academy — a real-life program intended to turn players of Sony’s Gran Turismo games into actual racing drivers — are being put through their paces. The helicopter is an absurd bit of theater for the TV cameras, and Salter knows it. But he’s powerless to resist the marketing apparatus around him.
It’s hard to believe that it’s been a decade since Final Fantasy XIV launched and grew to become one of the most successful MMOs of all time. For those of us around in the early days, it’s no secret the game was in rough shape. So much so, that developers basically nuked the 1.0 product and spun the “great reset” as an important piece of lore instead. Now, Final Fantasy XIV has made amazing strides in gameplay, story and overall aesthetics while continuing to respond positively to player feedback along the way. The title is so celebrated around the world that even brands outside the gaming industry are excited to represent an important anniversary in the game’s history.
