We’re just a few weeks away from experiencing the biggest Yakuza game yet from Sega. But, while you wait, you can check out what the game has to offer with a fun new demo, which is available now.

Sega has announced that the Yakuza 6: The Song of Life – Prologue Demo is now available for download through the PlayStation Store. It’s free of charge, but you’ll need to save up a bit of hard drive space, as it takes up approximately 37GB of space. Yep, it’s that big of a demo.

Yakuza 6's demo, made available on the PlayStation Store earlier today, clocked in at over 30GB. There was a good reason for that: the download actually contains the full game, with only the opening stages made playable. The idea was that if you later decide to buy it, you’d be purchasing an unlock code. That was the idea, anyway.

In practice, for at least some lucky downloaders, they left out the lockout restrictions. Fans quickly discovered this while playing through; where the demo was supposed to end at a certain point early in the game, some players found they could just...keep going, and earn trophies as they went. They’d basically downloaded, and were playing through, the full game.




Sega quickly noticed this and pulled the demo from the North American store. The European and Australian versions of the demo appear to have been the correct versions, so they’re still up.
