In the video below, four of the actors can be seen lending their likeness to their in-game counterparts. Fans of the original Yakuza 2 may notice that not every character has their original voice actor because of the difference in performance capture technology between now and back in 2006.
Susumu Terajima is seen back in the detective shoes of the charactor Jiro Kawara, with Hakyru as Ryo Takashima, Yuichi Kimura as Tsutomu Bessho, and Houka Kinoshita as Wataru Kurahashi.
