Superb announcement for Microsoft, but I can see why they've done it with Game Pass. I think SEGA found their market for Yakuza games on other consoles hasn't been very successful in the past, if Microsoft subsidise it, then it alleviates the financial burden.

Love how they always leave out mentioning a physical release just to prop up Gamepass.

Insane get. Never played them, always wanted to. This sells it for me, I can bite at that price.

Cool. Thanks to PS and PC gamers funding top dollar over the years, so I can play these on GP for $1.

And you can play all 3 for 1.00. Am I doing it right?

That’s not how it works, you are supposed to get mad, and talk about how Sega betrayed you and now your heart will never be the same.Enjoy the games, Xbox folks.
Stop being mature about it.

So glad for my Xbox chaps to be able to experience these amazing gems.
Gamepass is such a cool initiative.

I personally prefer to play in the order of release (of the original ones) so I played first Kiwami 1 & 2 still have to play 0 though. Then Ill continute with 3,4,5,6 when I get the collection next February.
In terms of game design, you probably made the right choice.
Kiwami does feel like a big step back after Zero.
Kiwami 2 is on a new engine though, and it's great. :<

I think playing Zero first (which is where I started, now working my way through 4 after Zero->Kiwami->Kiwami 2->6->3 - I guess you could say I like the series) has a lot of merit. It gives much more context to the characters and is a great entry point for the series overall. Just don't play Zero and Kiwami back-to-back, the former is just superior in pretty much every way so it makes Kiwami feel worse than it really is.

Very cool news - Phil said in his brief on stage interview this was one of the results of his recent trips to Tokyo.
Im only seeing mention of Game Pass - surely these will also be available for individual purchase digitally?
