SEGA's new trailer for the zombie-ridden Yakuza: Dead Souls
skips the foreplay of human connection and solidarity. The
shambling hordes come first, picking their way through Tokyo's
red light district with a hunger for human flesh… and bone
marrow, and organs, and brains.  Fans of splatter-house gore
will enjoy gameplay footage of what seems like a very mobile
third-person shooter. Only after the wanton violence on zombies
big and small does the soundtrack kick back in, revealing a
distinct but just as considerable threat for the player.
Yakuza: Dead Souls hits shelves sometime in March 2012.  (I
initially erroneously stated that developer Toshihiro Nagoshi
wasn't on this project, but it turns out he is. Apologies.)
