A Sega of Japan release schedule has revealed plans to release Yakuza 1&2 HD Edition.

The game was later removed from the online release schedule, but not before Andriasang managed to take the picture on this screen.

According to the site, the HD remakes of the PS2 games are set to be bundled together on one PS3 Blur-ray disc and released in December 1 for 5,229 (£42.60).

Yakuza 5 is also set for release in December.

Funny thing is I just finished Yakuza 4(story mode at least) and I was hoping they would do an HD collection.

Yakuza 1 and 2 HD Edition confirmed for PS3

Yakuza 1 and 2 HD Edition has been confirmed by Japanese magazine Weekly Famitsu (via Andriasang).

The PlayStation 3 upgrade of the PlayStation 2 games launches on 1st November in Japan.

As well as the expected HD visuals, load times have been reduced, and you can now manage your item box in the phone booth. Food you've eaten at least once will now have a check mark shown on menus.

In Japan there are pre-order bonuses themed around the PS2 versions' packaging.

Will Sega release Yakuza 1 and 2 HD Edition in the west? Sega Europe declined to comment when quizzed by Eurogamer this morning.

An official unveiling of the game is expected tomorrow.

I'd like to know as well. Absolutely loved 3 and 4. The in game recaps of 1 and 2 looked incredibly promising though.

Well, pre-order is up on Playasia. Still wonder if NA is going to get a release.
