Versions

The western release of Yakuza 0 had a few changes, including the name of the game itself. In Japan, it was titled Ryū ga Gotoku 0: Chikai no Basho, or Like a Dragon 0: The Place of Oath. In addition, two licensed songs were removed in the western release and replaced with original instrumental tracks. These songs were "Bubble" and "Kurenai" by the Japanese band Shōnan no Kaze.

In the Chinese localization of the game, Lao Gui's model was changed to resemble his Chinese-language voice, which was provided by the Hong Kong-based actor Sam Lee.
