Yakuza 3 Remastered tied to Complete Series bundle, studio says

Pcgamer reports Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio confirmed on Saturday: "Those who already own Yakuza 3 Remastered will still be able to continue playing it," the company posted on X, "but for those new to the series who wish to experience the original version, it will be available with purchase of the Yakuza Complete Series bundle."

Yakuza Kiwami 3 is billed as an "extreme" remake of the 2009 original and will include Dark Ties, which, as Wes Fenlon discovered last week, is a "breakneck roguelite dungeon crawl" set during the same time period. The inclusion of Kiwami 3 means the remastered version of Yakuza 3 will be harder to buy when the remake releases.

What is certain from the studio's post is that current owners will retain access to Yakuza 3 Remastered, while new players who want the original remaster will need to purchase the Yakuza Complete Series bundle.
