After an eighteen-year hiatus, Shenmue III has finally arrived, and Ryo Hazuki once again continues his journey through China in search of Lan Di. Will the long-awaited sequel live up to the hype and expectations?
In addition to its Steam release this week, Shenmue III is getting a special physical edition via Limited Run Games. The Complete Edition is available to order today for $149.99.
Shenmue III launched almost a year ago on PS4 and the Epic Games Store. With its exclusivity period about to end, PC gamers looking to pick up Shenmue III on Steam will soon be able to do so.
The adventures of Ryo are soon to continue as the third DLC for Shenmue III now has a release date. This time around a cruise ship is making landfall, complete with a casino.
The second DLC for Shenmue III is coming to digital store shelves this week. Ryo Hazuki is about to encounter a familiar face from his past and become wrapped up in an all-new quest.
After releasing this past November, Shenmue III is about to receive its first DLC. Battle Rally is a race in which the participants attempt to beat each other senseless in order to get ahead.
After a long wait, Shenmue III is nearly here. Here’s one last launch trailer before the game hits next week.
Shenmue III is nearing its launch date after many years of wait. Publisher Deep Silver hopes to set the proper mood by showing “The Spirit of the Land”.
Shenmue III received a new trailer at this week’s Gamescom. The video shows some of the arcade mini-games as well as a bit of martial arts combat.
PC backers of Shenmue III will soon be able to get their hands on a stand-alone trial act before the game’s full release in November. Like the PC release, the trial version will be an Epic Games Store exclusive.
Shenmue III gets another small media update with new screenshots and a half-minute teaser trailer. It does at least confirm the return of forklift driving.
After the reveal that Shenmue III’s PC version will launch exclusively on the Epic Games Store, Deep Silver and Ys Net have detailed the options available to those backers who requested a Steam copy. PC and PlayStation 4 versions can be chosen, though refund requests will also be honoured.
Deep Silver and Ys Net showed off the first gameplay trailer for Shenmue III during the PC Gaming Show at E3. The companies also revealed that the game’s PC version will be exclusive to the Epic Games Store.
Limited Run Games held its second annual E3 presentation. Games receiving upcoming physical editions include Transistor, Rogue Legacy, and Dark Devotion, with Limited Run Games also signing on to distribute Shenmue III’s collector’s edition.
Fans of the Shenmue series recently received an update regarding its upcoming third entry. The update explained that Shenmue III’s release was being pushed back to November.
Shenmue III put in an appearance at the recent MAGIC 2019 conference in Monaco. During the conference, Ys Net unveiled a brand new trailer for the game.
It’s time for way too many people to get on a Skype call and debate the following. How much is Wheels is wrong? What decade will the Final Fantasy VII remake will come out? And most importantly, what did we do to deserve Metal Max Xeno and The Witch and the Hundred Knight 2?
2019 already has plenty of titles to get excited for. The RPGamer staff picked out a selection of games they are most anticipating and are keen to hear what readers are looking forward to.
Shenmue I & II are out now, giving RPGamers a chance to play through the prior games ahead of third’s release. There isn’t too much of a rush to get through the pair, however, as Ys Net has revealed that Shenmue III is a year away.
The record-breaking Shenmue III Kickstarter campaign continues to raise funds, even three years after the initial campaign ended. The developers hope that a newly-met stretch goal and a reward tier price drop will attract even more backers.
In news that won’t come as too much of a surprise, Shenmue III’s release has been pushed back. At least it gives players more time to remind themselves of events through the upcoming remasters of the previous games.
