Michael Madsen and Mark Hamill headline the US vocal talent for the upcoming release of the PS2’s Yakuza, released last year in Japan as Ryo ga Gotoku. Joining them are fellow voice-acting veterans Michael Rosenbaum (Gladius, Justice League, and Smallville), Eliza Dushku (Buffy the Vampire Slayer series and video game), and Rachel Leigh Cook (Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, Kingdom Hearts II, and She’s All That). In an interview with Gamespot, Yakuza’s US producer, Justin Lambros, explained that space constraints prevented the game from including both English and Japanese dialogue, but added that all of the American actors “put a piece of themselves into their character.”

The gritty, GTA-influenced game is due to ship in September.
