After the successful releases of Vanquish and Bayonetta on the PC, a lot of PC gamers began wondering whether the Japanese publisher would port additional games that were previously exclusive on consoles. And it appears that both the Yakuza and Persona franchises may find their way to our platform.
As SEGA Europe’s senior vice president of commercial publishing, John Clark, told PCGamer, when asked about Yakuza.
“If I asked you to write me a list of ten games you want Sega to bring out on PC, it probably isn’t any different from the list [we have]. I could ask anyone at Sega: write me a list. And what motivates it? I think there’s a certain catalogue that people just have an affinity with.
It’s on that listOf course something we’re talking about it… that would just be incredible to bring that to the PC audience.”
Alongside Yakuza is Persona and like Yakuza, it may be eventually ported to the PC.
“Of course, of course – I keep trying to get in ahead of you, I’m trying to guess what you’re going to say next. We don’t feel that anything is off the table in terms of these conversations. The fact that as an organisation we’re having these healthy conversations, they’re constructive, we recognise the value, we recognise the value of the community, the IP. The IP has got continued life to grow and get bigger.”
So yeah, SEGA teases future PC releases for both Yakuza and Persona, though we do have to note that nothing has been confirmed at this point!

Persona 5 on PS4 looked like a PS2 game remastered for PS3
i can’t wait for it to be on PC with no real fullscreen mode , locked res/fps 1080p/30fps
just emulate the ps3 version. many have found it playable. although im waiting on some more performance fixes as im in no rush to play it. already got a decent backlog.
While there are definitely more than a few low res textures and such, the art style is so strong that the visuals really shines through in most instances.
Persona on PC would be awesome. Bring it on, SEGA.
Shut up… and take my money SEGA! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/fb2201b6b538e7768d279210b88030170b864f4f528578e5613d15a8c3485481.gif
hahaha, good one
I pre-ordered for the first time in a very long time because of them for Vanquish. It was on Steam, so it wasn’t really a risk but I would do it again in a heart beat for these franchises.
This in one of the only instances where that meme is perfectly acceptable.
I’m a bit more skeptical on Persona but i could see Yakuza showing up on pc.
PS4 fanboys on suicide watch.
SEGA is quickly becoming one of my favorite publishers. They’ve really been listening to fans lately.
SEGA: Hires Sonic fans to work on a new Sonic game.
Take-Two, Nintardo: DMCA GTA/Pokemon/Metro fans to death.
It would be nice but im doubtful either dev could deliver a proper pc port as they have no experience with the platform
So they outsource the work, like they did with Vanquish, no biggie.
Valkyria Chronicles.
Condemned 2: Bloodshot! Pretty please?
Isn’t super weird Condemned 2 never came to PC? I mean, it was made by a freaking PC devs.
I have high hopes of that happening in the near future. Also, I expect they will consider remaking or remastering or whatever Alpha Protocol. Times are changing for the better. Consoles are losing exclusives almost on a daily basis.
Can’t wait for Persona 5. 😀
Go on SEGA, that’s it, that’s right, easy now, slowly, slowly, that’s right, keep pushing your head OUT of your *ss, THAT’S RIGHT, KEEP PUSHING! AND YOU! KEEP PULLING! THAT’S IT, THAT’S RIGHT!
F*CK YEAH, BABY.
thats some strong emotions, lol
;D
I think a couple of people removed their likes from your post, ROFLMAO
Awwwwww ;(
But isn’t Persona from Atlus!?
Atlus is own by Sega
OooH! I did not know that.
YAKUZA pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeese!
I’d love to see them bring an updated OutRun 2006: Coast2Coast to Steam.
I know it’s possible to mod the existing release but I’d gladly pay Sega if they did the above.
WOAH! I’ve been on a news black out since E3 coz I wanna see the games for myself BUT MAN! there are lots good news that I can only find here. Love you DSOG 🙂
BRING ANARCHY REIGNS TO THE PC!!!
Fake news, Persona 5 is exclusive to Playstation. It even says on the godammn box. So what now thats a lie?
Will never come to pc,too much piracy
Yakuza already runs at 60 FPS on PS4.
