In a surprise announcement, a Playstation Store update article on Sony’s PSBlog revealed the introduction of several Yakuza 5-themed avatar pictures for PS3 users. As it is, the avatars are immediately available but only for US-based accounts. Every little promotional effort for Yakuza 5 is appreciated, but hopefully Europe can participate too.
They are all priced at 50 cents (US.) Here is a list of avatar types in text that may be chosen:
- Yakuza 5 Avatar
- Yakuza 5 Haruka Avatar
- Yakuza 5 Haruka Idol Avatar
- Yakuza 5 Kiryu Avatar
- Yakuza 5 Majima Avatar
- Yakuza 5 Akiyama Avatar (missing in the PSBlog article’s list…but that’s okay! Or not, if you like Akiyama)
- Yakuza 5 Saejima Avatar
- Yakuza 5 Shinada Avatar
This preview image of the avatars has been making the rounds online; it’s a great tool to check out which avatars may appeal to you. Most everything here are promotional renders of the characters.
