Of course, the big question is going to be the same for both projects: Will they be released in North America and Europe?

Unfortunately, there's no way of knowing right now but at least the games are in the works:

During Sony's TGS 2015 presentation, Sega announced two new Yakuza projects for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. The first is called Yakuza: Kiwami and it's basically a remake of the original PS2 title; it'll boast updated graphics and a brand new scenario and system. This will be available on January 21, 2016 in Japan for both PS3 and PS4. Again, here's hoping it'll eventually find its way west.

The second project is a full-fledged sequel: Yakuza 6 is in the works for PS4 and it currently has a tentative Fall 2016 Japanese date. Just be patient because bringing this series to the U.S. can take a while, as fans well know. Heck, we're just now getting Yakuza 5 , which launched in Japan back in 2012.
