A remaster for PS4 was released in August 2018 in Japan and a year later worldwide. This was the first main Yakuza game to be released on the PS3, and is the first game to feature many of the firearm models that feature in later games.

Handguns

Colt Model 1903

Tojo Clan Sixth Chairman Daigo Dojima is armed with this pistol. He attempts to shoot CIA Agent Andre Richardson, the series's first white character, but Richardson outdraws him.

Makarov PM

This handgun is used by antagonist Tetsuo Tamashiro. The barrel is extended compared to a regular Makarov, and the hammer is shaped differently.

SIG-Sauer P226/H&K USP

This hybrid of a SIG-Sauer P226 and Heckler & Koch USP is seen in the hands of Joji Kazama. The game model is called "CZ-75" although it does not particularly resemble the Czech pistol.

Rifles

Unknown Rifle

A rather strange looking set of rifles, with top sight and brown furniture similar to an Armalite AR-10, but clearly in a smaller calibre with an odd front grip, appear in the weapon dealer's Tardis-like van. They additionally have cosmetic similarities to a prototype of the Howa Type 64, but this is likely nothing more than coincidence.

Mounted Weapons

General Electric M134 Minigun

A General Electric M134 Minigun mounted on a CIA UH-60 "Black Hawk" helicopter is used to send Kazama Family patriarch Osamu Kashiwagi to the big man in the sky. Amazingly however, despite having been shot by a Minigun, Kashiwagi survives for long enough to tell Kiryu his last request. It goes without saying that a considerable amount of artistic licence was used in this scene. In actual fact, the likelihood of Kashiwagi, or Kiryu for that matter, not being blasted into human casserole meat by a 3000-round-per-minute 7.62-mm Minigun at a range of about 20 m is remote at best. The lack of a flash suppressor shows that this is an original GE model, rather than the Dillon Aero or General Dynamics variants one would expect to find mounted to a Black Hawk.
