'Shenmue III' (ALL) Pre-Order Bonuses Including Limited Edition Steelbook, Dragon & Phoenix Medallion, and More

Shenmue III is an Unreal Engine 4-powered, open-world, action/RPG game that continues the legacy of the Shenmue franchise.

Shenmue III will have familiar elements from its predecessors and new fight mechanics to achieve a new level of interactive storytelling. Our ambition is to deliver a Shenmue experience that will draw in newcomers to the series and reward diehard fans with its deep story and rich gameplay.

Where we left off... Ryo Hazuki has made his way to China in search of his father’s killer. There he meets a new traveling companion, Shenhua, and learns of a legend from her village that has foretold their path together. 

The story continues as Ryo and Shenhua start off on a new journey that will take them farther into enemy territory, deeper into mystery, and ever closer to their destiny. 

Will the mystery of the mirrors be revealed? How is Ryo’s father connected to all of this? Will Ryo track down the Chi You Men cartel and face Lan Di in a final showdown?

Deep Silver has revealed all of the awesome in-game items and bonuses players will receive when they pre-order and purchase Shenmue III, the highly anticipated sequel to the beloved franchise from YS Net. These available at retail pre-order items will aid Ryo as he continues the search for his father’s killer.
