The Yakuza series is turning 15 this year, and if a open-world games.
The birthday celebration was announced on Yakuza: Like A Dragon. The stream will be viewable live on Youtube, through this link, on December 8 at 03:00 PST / 06:00 EST / 11:00 GMT.
There's all sorts of predictions and hopes for what might be announced. Perhaps the most sought after is Yakuza 3 through Yakuza 6 on PC, bringing the bulk of the mainline games to Steam. Another possible option is a preliminary announcement of the next direct sequel, Yakuza: Like A Dragon 2, continuing Ichiban Kasuga's story as started in Yakuza: Like A Dragon.
Our Ian Boudreau was fond of Like A Dragon, to say the least, calling it "one of this year's must-play games" in wasn't alone, either.

A longtime producer on the Yakuza games recently said he'd like to make a Sonic game. Doubtful we'll hear anything about that here, but stranger things have happened.
