Release and collector context

Source-linked facts

Yakuza 3 — Rising Dragon is a documented special edition of the PlayStation 3 hardware family. The source-linked record places this exact physical configuration in Japan in 2009 (the exact day and month are not documented). It remains a separate collector item because its model, color, regional presentation, or bundled configuration differs from the parent hardware record.

Research status
Structured source record
01

Release context

The documented release is 2009 (the exact day and month are not documented) for Japan on PlayStation 3. Date precision is preserved exactly: the archive does not invent a day when the source records only a month or year.

02

Regional differences

This record is scoped to Japan. The linked structured source does not document a separate regional title or package difference, so PLAYBACK does not infer one.

03

Physical packaging

The physical format is documented as Special edition. The current structured source does not enumerate every insert, manual, sleeve, or bonus item, so no unverified contents are claimed.

04

Editions and revisions

This record represents a special edition within the PlayStation 3 family, not a separate console generation.
