There are similar rumours - and have been for years, before the creation of the actual 'Yakuza' game; about SEGA as well.

The launch of the game did nothing to help those rumours, but certainly made it a bit more difficult to find information about online. :P



Guru Larry's channel covered one such rumor that "A certain Japanese game publisher" hired the yakuza to kidnap a developer's sister[0]. Covered in "The Untold History of Japanese Game Developers Vol. 2."
