When I watched the trailer at the state of play, I was starting to get hyped because I knew it was one of em, but I didn't know which one. At first I thought it was Kenzan, but I got something even better. When I heard the name Sakamoto Ryoma, I got fucking HYPED!
@@labenvenci1584 that was long ago, at gamescom 2019 they've said "we just started to talk about Ishin localization". With the increased popularity of the saga in recent times it would be foolish to not release at least Ishin.
@@fabioquintili2415 Definitely, with the success of Sekiro and Ghosts of Tsushima around the corner they'd definitely be discussing it again, at the very least.
Sadly it might not happen due how complicated it seems to translate the traditional japanese language. That's also why the west never was able to get it. :/
@@OnlineGameMasters Bullshit. They said the only reason it was because when they decided to get back into english releases they never found a time to release it between more important titles.
@@Kazzy234 Problem is that its starting to look really outdated visually. I'm honestly expecting I'll learn Japanese faster then it'll get a translation.
With the entire mainline series being remastered, remade, localized, and recently, xbox getting yakuza 0, kiwami, kiwami 2, there's no reason for SEGA to not release kenzan and ishiin to the west
Ishin is about japan trying not to lose their identity against the influence of the west. also the main character is like a national hero and 99% of westerns don't know shit about him. And other historical figures that are there too. Also, Ishin sold around 500k over all years passed on ps3 and ps4 altogether, which makes it a niche installment in the niche franchise. Also, it's almost a 7-year-old game.
@@vault29a So? The game has an ingame wiki that explains all this shit if you somehow don't know or know very little about Sakamato Ryouma, and samurai's are in right now. There is however the issue of the English name referencing a group not even existing in this game. I almost expect it to get released as part of a "Like a Dragon Samurai" remaster pack with Kenzan similar to the remasters, as SEGA is already considering remaking or rereleasing Kenzan, and the reason they make Yakuza 7 "Yakuza: Like a Dragon" is to facilitate this.
My husband's and mine's first date was a One OK Rock concert four years ago and I had just gotten into the Yakuza series this year so this is pretty neat to me, weirdly nostalgic too tbh
I'm a huge fan of this opening and before I found out this was by the band ONE OK ROCK, i thought your comment meant that they chose "one ok rock song" implying the other openings are bad and this one is only okay.
Oh god! I thought that ONE OK ROCK song was edited in! They actually used that as the song, that's amazing! Not a big fan of OOR but this is one of my favorites from them.
What a great game. It's as if the Yakuza cast are in a movie portraying famous people from the Bakumatsu period. I hope the Kiwami 2 survey helps push this game overseas.
Ladies and gentlemen, we can fight Ryuji butt naked this coming February I will say Yakuza handled that name transition perfectly Yakuza Kiwami 2 - Yakuza: Like A Dragon - Like A Dragon: Ishin!
Lesgooo, even if they don't use this intro in the game, we're still getting a remake in the UE4. Plus, devilleon will probably make an edit of it and make an opening like he did with Yakuza Kiwami 2.
This intro is actually something else man, as a westren fan of the series, i just wish they could give us localization for games like ishin and kenzan, considering how well other games sold overseas.
The year is 2021, the full Yakuza series is being ported to Xbox and PC. it's a massive hit in the west, and 2020 brought fantastically well recieved games set in Japanese history. Sega still won't translate Ishin or Kenzan as "they don't think the west will be interested"
What perfect timing! I just bought it digitally today, with the PS Plus discount, and I am blown away by how great this one is. I thought that the boss fights in this are very easy, excluding the boss and a few others, but boy, when playing for the first time with default sword and revolver, it is actually challenging, with swordfighting being the core mechanic. I was going to use the PS4 recording function for the bosses, but for some reason it doesnt work for my EU account, people say that when you play with the japanese account it's fine, but I need to check that
Shevko0812 I haven't started the game yet to be honest, I only recorded the opening xD But i'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the game, i'll play it when i can. About the recording thing, i'm not sure, sorry :S
Funny, I saw a lot of familiar faces in this trailer like Akiyama, Date, Saejima, Watase, Baba, Mine, Kazama, the Florist, Ryuji, Aizawa, Kashiwagi, Nishikiyama. Asides from the not-needed-to-be-mention like Majima. It’s like a Yakuza all stars cast. Would love to see the remake in the dragon engine and especially localized for the West of this game.
Since you remastered the Kiwami 2 intro, maybe when the new Ishin remake comes out you could remake this intro as well? Btw: Love your content man! You inspired me to play all the yakuza games!!!
I've listened to this song a lot before I got into the Yakuza/RGG series. I didn't they used this for the intro. It feels like I'm watching a short AMV.
Still my favourite RGG experience. I really hope the recent surge of western interest in the series persuaded Daisuke Sato and Nagoshi to bring Kenzan and Ishin to the west, especially with how well samurai games like Nioh and Sekiro have done.
We should hear something about Kenzan / Ishin soon as they have just released all legacy mainline RGG hd remasters in Asia. Hope they have something cooking.
I don't think they have the music license anymore since the original game came out 9 years ago so its been too long. It's likely that Ishin Kiwami will have no intro or make a new intro with For Faith playing since it's been used in all marketing.
Guys!!! As of posting this comment, the Yakuza community has a hashtag called #SaveIshin going on Twitter! The point of that Hashtag is to get this amazing game localized! Please hep us with the cause!
I have gone 3 years with ook being my favorite band and a full 2 years with yakuza being my favorite game, only to find out a few min ago that one of my favorite songs of theirs was used as an opening. What a world man
We did it y’all. After these long years. ITS COMING BACK. Localized BABYYYY LETS GOOOOO
LLLEEEETTTTTSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOO
LETS GOO
When I watched the trailer at the state of play, I was starting to get hyped because I knew it was one of em, but I didn't know which one. At first I thought it was Kenzan, but I got something even better. When I heard the name Sakamoto Ryoma, I got fucking HYPED!
I wonder if they're gonna keep One Ok Rock's music in the game
Unfortunately, no more opening:(
2020 and still waiting for a western release.
Hope is the last to die
Bro me too. I finished Y6 about a week ago and I'm feeling the withdrawal of the Yakuza series, I reaaaaaaly want Ishin 😭
They won't. The West is "not interested in Samurai Games" according to Sega.

They're not releasing that game because of the child prostitution it's been stated multiple why the game has not been released to the west.
I'm hearing Yakuza 0 is selling well so I hope to god SEGA wakes up and localizes Ishin.
Sadly it might not happen due how complicated it seems to translate the traditional japanese language. That's also why the west never was able to get it. :/

@@fearedjames maybe after Judgement comes out Sega may consider translating this game to English.
@@Kazzy234 Problem is that its starting to look really outdated visually. I'm honestly expecting I'll learn Japanese faster then it'll get a translation.
@@fearedjames maybe they'll remaster it. At this point the visuals are something I don't care for since it looks the same as 0 or Kiwami 1.

Kenzan is a PS3 game, so I can’t see that happening, but Ishin seems at least possible.
Zai’s Meme Chamber did you forget that 3, 4 and 5 was also ps3 only?
Well, Yakuza 3, 4, and 5 were all remastered for the PS4 in Japan years before the Yakuza Remastered Collection was even announced.
Ishin is about japan trying not to lose their identity against the influence of the west. also the main character is like a national hero and 99% of westerns don't know shit about him.

I just learned something. The music crew who did this song is also the same crew who did Vandalize in Sonic Frontiers.
yes, one ok rock, its an amazing band
" Ghost of Tsushima is basically Yakuza with samurais"
Yakuza Ishin:
Yakuza Ishin: you guys realize that I exist
Tsushima is Assassin Creed with samurais
Literally no one has said that. Ever.
If anything people have been making tons of Assassin's Creed comparisons.
GoT is more Ass Creed than anything else. Don't see any similarities with RGG series.
Kenzan too
My husband's and mine's first date was a One OK Rock concert four years ago and I had just gotten into the Yakuza series this year so this is pretty neat to me, weirdly nostalgic too tbh
Need me a husband who listens to one ok rock :(
@@ilytamaly00x Hiii ☺️
Your Husband and Mine's first date? Is your husband Daigo?
@@MariusBoss11458 Fun fact, their first date was on the ruff
@@MiniDallas000 🤯
Hoping this opening is included in the game's remake!
I hope so too :D
I think it would be better to use new song from OOR
Them not using it in the reveal at all makes me doubt that
@@aldowijaya9161 Vandalized again
Yeah same
Surprised sega choose a ONE OK ROCK song
I'm a huge fan of this opening and before I found out this was by the band ONE OK ROCK, i thought your comment meant that they chose "one ok rock song" implying the other openings are bad and this one is only okay.
@@Bethynaee quite the misunderstanding there
Majima with a cannon
.....mother of god....
BOYS AND GIRLS WE GOT IT FEBRUARY 2023 MARK YOUR CALENDARS LIKE A DRAGON ISHIN IS OFFICIAL !!!
Who else is rewatching after the Ishin reveal?
Here’s hoping OOR gets to comeback for the op on Ishin’s return
Yes, Sonic already use their song, so I hope Ishin will use their song too
:[
So sad this isn't in the remake but at least Ishin is here!
never knew they used this song for the opening. damn, son.
LFG!!! 2023 really gonna make me homeless that badly.
ONE OK ROCK is in yakuza ishin and sonic frontiers 😭😭😭
I’m so happy they’re finally localizing it🎉🎉🎉🎉
Took years but we finally got an English release
The day has finally come for us
Oh god! I thought that ONE OK ROCK song was edited in! They actually used that as the song, that's amazing!
Not a big fan of OOR but this is one of my favorites from them.
Same lol, thought the song was edited in
When "Legends say that you look exactly like your ancestor" is taken to another level.
I hope they just remastered the cinematic and keep the music 🙏🙏
WE DID IT BOYS!! ISHIN WILL BE LOCALIZED AROUND FEBRUARY 2023 I THINK, IDK
Guys we have done it they're finally localising Ishin we won.
Who’s here after the announcement that this opening’s band is doing the ending theme for Sonic Frontiers 🤚
I should say that is the second time OOR involved in SEGA 's game
WE WON.
I hope One Ok Rock is still in the new one.
Hopefully one ok rock will do the intro song for Ishin remake, fingers crossed.
Shame this wasn't in the credits for the remake
What a great game. It's as if the Yakuza cast are in a movie portraying famous people from the Bakumatsu period. I hope the Kiwami 2 survey helps push this game overseas.
Years later, your wish was granted.
Ladies and gentlemen, we can fight Ryuji butt naked this coming February
I will say Yakuza handled that name transition perfectly
Yakuza Kiwami 2 - Yakuza: Like A Dragon - Like A Dragon: Ishin!
They censored it!
IT GOT NERFED 😫
but PC MODDERS GOT OUR BACK :D
Bro as a One ok rock fan and now a Yakuza fan (got into the games few months ago) this is so cool, never would have imagined this combination
Who’s here after the announcement that’s it coming to the states in February 🤟🏻
HELL YES ITS COMING 2023 BABY
Wait this was legit the opening?! I love this song!! Been listening to it already lmao
FINALLY I'VE BEEN WAITING I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH
Had to come pay respects after the news today
Lesgooo, even if they don't use this intro in the game, we're still getting a remake in the UE4.
Plus, devilleon will probably make an edit of it and make an opening like he did with Yakuza Kiwami 2.
I'm glad it's coming, but man it would've been cool to hear this banger.
A somewhat related haiku of disappointment from me:
My birthday is here
But Yakuza 5 is not
Sadness all around.
***** Aww, sorry to hear that D: It'll eventually be out and we'll all enjoy it.
.
And now the remastered one is going to be here in less than a week!
And now the remastered collection and Yakuza 6 are coming to Steam and Xbox as well.
WE EATING GOOD TODAY BOYS
I’m from 2022, we did it bois, Ishin is getting a from the ground up remake, with characters from Yakuza 7 as well!
I hope this is still the theme for the remake.
This is by far the best opening to any video game I have ever played
WE WON KYODAIS WE FINALLY HAVE IT
I really hope this intro and banger stays in the remake since both Judgement games kept their licensed intro themes
WE WON, YAKUZA BROS
Happy to hear this is getting a western release. Hopefully this song is still the intro. If not, another OOR song would be cool too.
They better not replace this in the localized version
rip
ITS TIME BOYSSSSSSS
Love this opening for the song.
SEGA just said that they are looking to bring YAKUZA Ishin to the west, they are just waiting for the right time, what a treat!
This intro is actually something else man, as a westren fan of the series, i just wish they could give us localization for games like ishin and kenzan, considering how well other games sold overseas.
You know why you're here.
Hope you enoy the game and raising those crops with Ishin-Haruka
Love Train Lol, thanks xD
Loved this song and these games for years, but I had no idea they were linked until now. Mindblown 🤣
The game award are coming soon and we know that yakuza 8 is on work let just hope for a port of ishin and kenzan
EVERYONE, OUR PRAYERS HAVE FINALLY BEEN ANSWERED. YAKUZA ISHIN IS FINALLY COMING TO THE WEST IN FEBRUARY 2023. XD
Some day, they will translate these games guys...
Hopefully
Yakuza sounds so bad In dub I prefer the original
@@ashwelldsouza that’s not what he said
@@ashwelldsouza Translate as in English subtitles not necessarily a dub
@@Vibe1610 oh that , my bad my bad
For the love of God Sega, release this masterpiece in the west too!
Knowing that this get localised is now a possibility makes me so damn happy
Are you talking about the fanmade localization or are you saying that this game may get an official English release?
Hey there
FINALLY IS SAILING OUT OF JAPAN!
I remember back in fall and late 2020 I would go on walks and listen to this. Good times
REMAKE COMING LETS GOOOOOO
Kenzan Kiwami and Ishin remaster both in one pack
A dream I have
We are still here, waiting for the localization..! SEGA! DO IT!
well you got your wish buddy
YO
FINALLY
Let's gooooo
FINALLY IT COMING TO THE WEST!!!
I read somewhere that they are considering releasing these two games on the West, so there's hope
Maybe this year dude as of this comment there is no Yakuza been announced so maybe we will get this instead of a new entry.
@@icallum17x7 Our prayers have been answered my dude 😁

finally boyss it back to give us a grace of this game to PC
They didn't remake the opening or make an opening for the game which sucks I love this one but at lest we got the game.
hoping someone edits ishin kiwami with clock strikes opening again
It exists
what an irony that only english thing in the game is in its opening
Also the credit song
also a handful of side characters
finally we will play this game 🙏 isshin remake is coming boys and girls
The one thing that would get me to come back to the seires: A ishin rlease here in the west
...I should buy a boat...
I am dying to know if he bought one
Finding "Boat"
2021 and still waiting for Western (and PC) release
Since you remastered the Kiwami 2 intro, maybe when the new Ishin remake comes out you could remake this intro as well?
Btw: Love your content man! You inspired me to play all the yakuza games!!!
