Shenmue III is shipping now for Kickstarter backers it seems
- Thread starter Metalgus
- Start date
If they wait until the 18th to start sending these out in the US, Imma be mad.
Monday is a holiday, they will start to run out of time soon.
Watch them send it out via Media Mail.

Same haha but I'd be fine if they shipped it at the release date, with Pokémon around the corner and my Cold Steel III playthrough still going on... *cries in backlog*
Got my email too. So close. I really really can't wait to get into this game and I suspect that it is going to be like putting on a comfy pair of slippers.
Got to say that delays have resulted in an alignment of the stars so to speak, with ROM finally shipping their Dreamcast: Collected Works around the same time that the game releases. An absolutely mouth watering accompaniment.

Just laying here at 4am, excited for Shenmue III. Really curious to explore the game in full, get a feel for the final build. Curious to see the different areas and how well they recreated China. Excited to return to 1987.
Im curious how much it will feel like dropping back into Ryo's journey. Interested to see what surprises their are. Really feels like a game that should have existed a long time ago, but now you get to explore it in greater clarity. Wonder how the old Shenmue tree is doing. Need go make sure the phoenix mirror is still in the inventory, see what state Shenhua is in. See if swords still float or Ryo's kung fu has gotten rusty any.
Should be a very fun return. Hope everyone else is as excited

It's hard to feel like I'm as excited as I would've been had it been announced when I was still a teenager and in high school, but I'm as excited for Shenmue 3 as I can be.
I hope anyone who is approaching this as a newcomer gives it a little time before writing it off, cuz if it's anything like Shenmue 1 or 2 you're in for a very unique experience that simply challenges most modern gaming conventions. If you like detailed worlds and taking your time, I'm sure you'll learn to love Shenmue. Even I, one of the most shameless Shenmue fanboys on this forum, struggled with the first game for a little while way back in the early 2000s. It took a little time to grow on me and then it just completely astounded me in so many ways.
"Dated" is just a matter of perspective. I'm bracing for a lot of negativity, but I am heartened to see the core fan base is thrilled with the demo and will probably love the final product.

I was replaying RDR 2, a game I love and the slow pace and believable characters in the camp, reminded me a bit of Shenmue. Probably a odd comparison lol.
Shit just got real.
I'm not too concerned with stumbling upon spoilers too much since I generally avoid social media, but Youtube is the one thing I'm worried about. I've come dangerously close to having things spoiled for me through video titles alone, so I should probably start taking the necessary precautions to ensure that doesn't happen.
Video Blocker for Chrome. Probably the only thing that'll get me through this mess.
sorry i was not clear, i was talking about the digital code for the game not dlc or stuff =)
That's actually what they are referencing :) If you Kickstarted a digital code (for PS4 or PC), it'll appear on your Fangamer page and you will get an email when it is there.
oh thx, but i never created a fangamer account, i only backed through kickstarter, how it works?
You automatically have a backer page on Fangamer, which is different from an actual Fangamer account.
Try digging through your emails with the account you backed the game with. You should find something from Fangamer that'll take you to your page.
D'oh. Why do I feel like I'll be waiting up to a year for everything else...
Red Dead 2 in general has so much Shenmue in it like going through all the drawers/cabinets, the journal, viewing all the objects in your hand in first person, the feeling of the camps/towns, etc. I'm surprised people don't mention that more.
im denver, co and i have no emal confirmation. im like right next door to tuscon AZ, where they ship from
