Sega quickly pulled the highly anticipated “Yakuza 6: The Song of Life” demo from the PlayStation Store after discovering some players had inadvertently gained access to the full game using the demo.
This discovery came only hours after the demo was initially released for PlayStation 4.
The Japanese video game company tweeted, “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.”
In a follow-up tweet, Sega explained they don’t yet know how players were able to access the full game via the demo.
At the time of publishing, Sega has not yet returned Business Insider’s request for comment on the decision to take down the demo.
