SEGA Forced to Remove Yakuza 6 Demo

After releasing the Yakuza 6 demo on the PlayStation Store yesterday, SEGA have been forced to remove it after finding that players were able to play the full game.

The demo consisted of the full game, but with later sections locked to prevent anyone from accessing them. Somehow, these locks weren't in place forcing SEGA's hand.

Here's the Tweet from SEGA:

We apologize, but have had to remove the Yakuza 6: The Song of Life demo from the PlayStation Store. We are as upset as you are, and had hoped to have this demo available for everyone today. We discovered that some were able to use the demo to unlock the full game. 1/2

Originally slated for release on March 20th, earlier this month SEGA announced that it was delaying its latest instalment in the combat-adventure series. Or...now, if you already have the "demo".

Yakuza 6 (officially) releases this side of Japan on April 17th for PlayStation 4.
