Shenmue 3 To Look 70% Like The Original

August 31, 2017 by Jordan Coetsee

Good news for fans of the Shenmue series!

We’ve got some good news for fans of the Shenmue Series, according to series creator Yu Suzuki, the upcoming title will be 70% like the original game. Speaking to Metro GameCentral Suzuki said that that fans can expect the new title to not be that far of a departure from the original.

“I don’t think it’s necessary to change the basics of the gameplay,” he said. “If I change it too much the existing fans will be very upset. Although I am always making up new ideas and things to add to the game, which can be a problem for my team who are trying to implement these ideas.

Suzuki said that the team aims for the game to be 30% new and 70% to remain the same – however, the team isn’t entirely closed to changing that ratio.

“At the moment we are trying to keep it to 30% new and the keep the other 70% of the game similar to the original. But the design is constantly changing and I am always coming up with new concepts that we can try to add to the game if there is the opportunity.”

Why reinvent the wheel right? Shenmue 3 is due out on the PS4 and PC, currently scheduled for the end of next year release.
