With 1.8 million Japanese characters in the original script, as well as unfamiliar board games, localising Yakuza 0 was a mammoth task that took over 18 months.
Since Yakuza 0 was built on the same engine as Yakuza 5, a PlayStation 3 version of the game was created. However, this version was only released in Asian countries.
