Yakuza: Dead Souls

Story

Dead Souls is a non-canon side story set in April 2011, a year after the events of Yakuza 4. A sudden zombie outbreak spreads through Kamurocho and is slowly quarantined while the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force is called in to contain the infection. Four men try to help the people of Kamurocho and find the source of the disease: Shun Akiyama, a money lender trying to save his secretary Hana; Goro Majima, a feared yakuza and construction boss trying to fight off his own infection; Ryuji Goda, who survived his wounds at the end of Yakuza 2 and works as a takoyaki cook; and Kazuma Kiryu, an orphanage caretaker and former yakuza who must return to Kamurocho when his adopted daughter Haruka is kidnapped. The game is divided into four parts, each of which focuses on a specific character.
