Yakuza 3 will feature almost five hours of cutscenes, according to the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC).

The BBFC awarded the much-anticipated PS3 action-thriller an '18' rating due to “strong violence” and the listing also reveals that it will containa hefty 295 minutes and 18 seconds of “linear elements...(eg cutscenes).”

Until recently,  it was uncertain as to whether the game would receive a European release but Sega has confirmed it will hit store shelves in Europe, Australia and the US in March 2010.

Yakuza 3 begins with series protagonist Kiryu Kazama enjoying a peaceful life running an orphanage in Okinawa (aww, he's nice isn't he?) However, before long he is once again drawn into the shadowy world of the Yakuza in another open world action tale.
