Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties mod swaps Goh Hamazaki's face, ditching likeness of actor accused of sexual assault
A mod for Yakuza Kiwami 3 has been released that replaces the likeness of actor Teruyuki Kagawa, who voiced and appeared as Goh Hamazaki, with the character's original appearance from Yakuza 3. This change addresses fan backlash stemming from sexual assault allegations against Kagawa. Future plans for the mod include restoring the original voice actor, Joji Takahashi, and matching facial animations to the PlayStation 3 version.
