Shenmue III Pre-Order Bonus DLC & Steelbook Announced

It took several years but the third installment of Shenmue III is coming out into the market. This franchise has quite the following but it left gamers on a cliffhanger when Sega opted to not pursue any further installments. Now that we’re getting a third installment through the help of a funded Kickstarter campaign, gamers are only months away before its readily available for the PC and PlayStation 4 platforms. For those who pre-order, you’ll get a few bonuses which publisher Deep Silver has unveiled through a press release that was sent out earlier today.

There are a few different retailers that you can pre-order Shenmue III but it seems that you’ll gain a few bonuses across the board from the participating retailers.

Pre-Order Bonuses

Snake Power: Three bottles of ‘Snake Power’ elixir to replenish energy during battle
Playing Tokens: 5,000 playing tokens for the in-game gambling area
“Blazing Kick” Advanced Training Scroll: Unlocks the advanced ability of the “Blazing Kick” to better challenge Ryo’s foes
Toy Capsule: Set of 24 tickets to exchange for in-game capsule toys

With that said, there are a few differences between GameStop, EB Games, Best Buy and Amazon. You’ll want to take note of their offered pre-order bonuses below.
