Yakuza 3 Kiwami and Dark Ties Direct Highlights New Gameplay Additions
Yakuza 3 Kiwami and Dark Ties Direct Highlights New Gameplay Additions Ahead of the holidays, Sega and RGG used a Direct showcase to offer another look at Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties, the updated version of the third installment , which focuses on the new gameplay elements in both Kazuma Kiryu and Yoshitaka Mine’s storylines. This also offers another opportunity to see how existing Life at Morning Glory Orphanage elements with Kiryu look in this version of the game. The Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties Direct started with the base game. Things began by showing Kiryu and his adopted daughter Haruka at the Morning Glory Orphanage in Okinawa. This section showed off minigames and Family Time Event scenes with the kids living at Morning Glory. We see Kiryu cook, farm, assist with science homework, sew, fish, and play with kids. The Family Time scenes are a bit like substories, in that he’ll get to know each kid and connect with them during side quests.  From there, we get to see the new Bad Boy Dragon element of Yakuza Kiwami 3, with the video showing gameplay of Kiryu assisting the Haisai Girls as they protect Okinawa from other groups like Tokyo Nightmare. This means increasing the ranks of the gang, getting them equipment, and taking squadrons into fights. At the 2:50 mark, the presentation focused on some of the new Yoshitaka Mine storyline features. This is all new-to-us and added for this release. While part of this segment focused on showing how his storyline will work, a big features for this section of the Direct ended up being Kanda Damage Control and Hell’s Arena. In the former, Mine takes on Good Deeds, Helping the Little People, and Damage Control Challenges to increase your Kanda Rep rank in town to get monetary rewards and see Bro Time scenes. Hell’s Arena involves opportunities to fight for rewards and glory. In a Hellish Brawl, Mine faces a single opponent. If you select a Survival Hell run, that sends him into an area filled with enemies for greater rewards. Here’s the full Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties Direct showcase highlighting new gameplay footage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOaNzqWpzCs Yakuza Kiwami 3 and Dark Ties will come to the Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC on February 12, 2026. The original game is on the PS3, PS4, Xbox One, and PC.  The post Yakuza 3 Kiwami and Dark Ties Direct Highlights New Gameplay Additions appeared first on Siliconera .

Trails Beyond the Horizon Demos Debut
Trails Beyond the Horizon Demos Debut NIS America shared two demos for The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon that allow us to sample different parts of the experience based on which platform we plan to play the JRPG. The Story Demo is out on the Switch, Switch 2, PS4, PS5, and PC now. If you have a PS4 or PS5, you can also get a separate Battle Demo. There’s a trailer looking at both trials as well. The nature of each demo means the experience will be different in each. The Story Demo available on all platforms is the primary experience. That lets you go through the prologue for Trails Beyond the Horizon, and the save files you make during that demo can be carried over to the full version of the JRPG. (You will need to get the Switch and Switch 2 day-one patch for that to work, however.) That allows you to see why Ashen Chevalier Rean Schwarzer, Father Kevin Graham, and Van Arkride are working together with Marduk. The PS4 and PS5 Battle Demo is a sample of the Grim Garten dungeon experience with three preset parties featuring all three leads.  NIS America and Falcom also shared a trailer highlighting what we can expect. It begins with a look at the Story Demo. At the 40 second mark, the focus shifts to the Battle Demo to highlight how the dungeons work.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJUXbKNOhCY The Legend of Heroes: Trails Beyond the Horizon will come to the Switch, Switch 2, PS4, PS5, and PC on January 15, 2026 , and the demos are available on storefronts now.  The post Trails Beyond the Horizon Demos Debut appeared first on Siliconera .
