Nintendo Switch 2 could get more Yakuza games based on fan interest, RGG Studio wanted to port Yakuza 3 & Dark Ties “no matter what”

Masayoshi Yokoyama from RGG Studio has spoken about bringing Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties to Nintendo Switch 2 as well as the series’ future on the platform.

In a Creator’s Voice video published by Nintendo today, Yokoyama indicated that Switch 2 could get additional Yakuza games if fans express their interest. He had this to say:

“We’ve had Yakuza 0, 1 2, and now 3. With the launch of Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties, we’ve released all the titles we can have on Nintendo Switch 2 so far. From here on, the number may increase if fans tell us more.”

Yokoyama also commented on Yakuza 3 & Dark Ties specifically, which will be releasing soon. He noted that the Nintendo Switch 2 version was possible thanks to the system’s power, so he “wanted to port the game over no matter what.”

Yokoyama’s full words:

“I’ve always thought that being able to play anywhere is really important for Nintendo Switch 2, and I think it’s a great piece of hardware that will make the dreams of people who wanted to play games in the past but were restricted by location come true. When Nintendo Switch 2 came out, the game actually worked because the performance had also improved so I decided from the beginning that I wanted to port the game over no matter what.”
