Only a few games become legendary.

This is the story of one of them…

Shenmue III sees the continuation of the epic story-driven saga. The player controls teenage martial artist Ryo Hazuki as he investigates his father's murder.

Players must explore the game's open world, searching for clues, examining objects and talking to non-player characters for information, taking them further into enemy territory, deeper into mystery, and even closer to their destiny.

Shenmue III will be released for PlayStation 4 and PC on August 27, 2019. If you're interested in this game, don't forget to check out the prequels Shenmue I & II, which have just been released for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC by SEGA today on August 21, 2018.
