Yakuza 3 Restoration Patch

Restores licensed music that was cut from the western version of Yakuza 3, as well as higher quality videos from PS3 version and uncensors the Tamashiro Family Crest. Additionally, a line of dialogue in a cutscene before the final boss has been corrected to feature a more accurate translation.
Use restoration patch[1]
  1. Download Yakuza 3 Licensed Music, Video and Uncensor Restoration Patch.
  2. Unpack the files to the <path-to-game> and overwrite when prompted.

Enabling High Resolution Characters Textures

This mod replaces the ingame characters' all textures with the high resolution cutscene textures because QLOC didn't changed all of the low quality textures.

High Resolution Font for Yakuza 3

Replaces the font in the game with the same official higher resolution text font for better 4K experience.

Quickstep Restoration

Essentially it restores the PS3 quickstep distance. The PC original was halved due to the new framerate, nerfing one of Kiryu's most powerful tools against enemy blocking early game.

Removal of the loud ambient audio in Downtown Ryukyu

This mod removes the loud ambient audio that constantly plays throughout Downtown Ryukyu in exploration which is a bug that was introduced on the PC port of Yakuza 3.
