Yakuza 5 Remastered Classic Edition (PS4, Xbox, PC)

Five playable protagonists, one premium box. The Yakuza 5 Remastered Classic Edition for PlayStation 4 gives the most ambitious entry in the original Yakuza saga a proper physical home, complete with a spot gloss premium box and slipcover, soundtrack, collectible acrylic standee, a Haruka Idol pin, and character cards. Yakuza 5 stretched across five cities and five characters, including the series' first playable turn as Haruka in her idol storyline, which makes that Haruka Idol pin a particularly fitting inclusion.

The standee connects with Limited Run's broader Yakuza Classic Edition lineup, rewarding collectors who commit to the full set. This remaster brought Yakuza 5 to PS4 after the original PS3 version took years to reach Western audiences, making the physical edition feel like a long-overdue correction. The character cards capture the expanded cast that set Yakuza 5 apart from its predecessors, and that spot gloss box maintains the visual consistency across the entire Classic Edition series.

For PS4 Yakuza collectors, skipping this one leaves a noticeable hole in the lineup.
