Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut for Switch 2 Shows Off What’s New in Fresh Trailer

With only a few days left before its official launch, Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut has dropped an all-new overview trailer, giving fans a peek at what’s coming to the Switch 2. If you're wondering what makes this version stand out, the video does a solid job of showing off the improvements, without giving away major story spoilers.

The trailer takes a quick dive into the game’s plot, setting the stage for both newcomers and longtime fans of the Like A Dragon series. What’s especially exciting is the extra content exclusive to this edition, including brand-new cutscenes that aim to add more depth to the story we thought we already knew.

Another highlight is the introduction of the Red Light Raid multiplayer mode. It's a new way to enjoy the game with others, though early impressions suggest it’s more of a casual side feature than a full-on competitive mode. Still, it’s a nice touch for those looking for something fresh to try once the main story wraps up.

US-based fans are also being treated to a quirky addition: a hotline you can actually call at 1-888-YAKUZA0 (that’s +1-888-925-8920). No spoilers on what happens when you dial in, but it’s clearly part of the game’s unique marketing charm. For those outside the US, SEGA warns that calling might come with extra charges, so think before you dial.

From early play sessions, feedback has been positive. While the new multiplayer mode may not steal the show, the core single-player story continues to shine as one of the strongest in the entire franchise. It’s clear Sega is trying to make this Switch 2 version feel like more than just a simple port.
