Sega has just announced that a playable demo will be arriving on the PlayStation Network very soon.

However, it does appear that PlayStation Plus subscribers will be getting the Yakuza 4 demo a little earlier. According to a recent article by Tom Ivan over at computerandvideogames.com, PlayStation Plus users will be able to download the demo as from February 16th.

All other PlayStation 3 owners will have to wait another week before they are able to download it. The demo not only allows you to play as Kazuma Kiryu, it will also enable you to try out the other three playable characters – Shun Akiyama, Taiga Saejima and Masayoshi Tanimura.

According to Robert Purchese over on the eurogamer.net website, the Yakuza 4 game – which was recently given an 18 rating by the UK game-ratings board BBFC – comes with an incredible 384 minutes of cutscenes. That works out at over 6 hours worth.

However, we now have news of another trailer and a confirmed UK/US release date.

According to a recent article by Mike Jackson over at computerandvideogames.com, Yakuza 4 will be arriving on March 15th in the United States and March 18th in the UK. The action-adventure title was first introduced to Japanese gamers back in March of last year.

Players will be able to take control of four characters in the Yakuza 4 game (which as previously mentioned won the Award for Excellence at last year’s Japan Game Awards) including the series main character Kazuma, along with the game’s new faces Tanimura, Akiyama and Saejiman.

Sega has also released a brand new trailer for the Yakuza 4 title, which not only goes over the biographical details of the game but also gives us a little more information on the combat skills of the four main characters. The trailer can be seen in a recent destructoid.com article by Conrad Zimmerman.

Sega has recently released a brand new trailer for the next installment in the series, as well as a few screenshots.

According to Stephany Nunneley over at vg247.com, the trailer – which you can view below this post – shows one of the game’s main characters, Shun Akiyama. It shows the story of how he went from not having anything, to being one of the wealthiest men in Kamurocho.

Besides the trailer, which also gives viewers an idea of how the character acts with the ladies, there are also a few screenshots from the game, which will be arriving exclusively for the PlayStation 3 in the spring of 2011. You can view the screenshots via vg247.com.

What do you think of the new trailer and screenshots? Will you be buying the game when it arrives next year? The Yakuza 4 game was released in Japan on March 18th, 2010 and has already received the Award for Excellence at the Japan Game Awards 2010.
