Like a Dragon: Kenzan! Gets Fan English Translation

A fan translation has finally brought Like a Dragon: Kenzan! into English, 18 years after its original 2008 PS3 release. The jidaigeki-themed Yakuza spin-off, known in Japan as Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan!, never received an official localisation and, unlike its sister title Ishin!, has not been remade for modern platforms. The patch comes from the same team responsible for last year's Ishin! fan translation. Series producers Masayoshi Yokoyama and Hiroyuki Sakamoto have previously discussed why the game has not been revisited, according to the outlet.
