Yakuza Kiwami 3 reportedly mentioned & then removed from Ryu Ga Gotoku website

The *Yakuza Kiwami* games represent Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio’s approach to re-exploring the classic titles, updating them with the studio’s evolved standards and design sensibilities. So far, we’ve seen *Yakuza Kiwami* 1 and 2 successfully revitalized, but recent rumors suggest that *Yakuza Kiwami* 3 might be on the horizon.

This week, *Yakuza* fans browsing the Japanese Ryu Ga Gotoku website reportedly spotted a mention of *Kiwami 3*. Screenshots of the reference quickly circulated across various sources, including Z64Gaming. However, the mention was soon removed from the website after its discovery, fueling speculation about the game’s future.

At this point, whether *Yakuza Kiwami 3* is officially in development or simply a passing mention remains uncertain. Regardless, the excitement within the fan community is undeniable. Many fans are eager to see *Kiwami 3* come to life, especially since the original *Yakuza 3* can be challenging to play due to its aging mechanics.

Still, *Yakuza 3* is an important part of the series’ overarching story. Fans hope that Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio continues to revisit its legendary titles to refresh and reintroduce them to both old and new audiences alike. If *Kiwami 3* does happen, it would be a welcome addition to this ongoing effort to polish and preserve the beloved *Yakuza* saga.
