SHENMUE 3’S EPIC GAMES STORE CONTROVERSY
Another major Epic Games Store-related controversy latched itself onto a game that we’d all been looking forward to for years. Shenmue 3’s release should have been a celebration, but the whole Epic Games Store fiasco turned it into anything but. This specific incident was considered even more egregious than most others, because Shenmue 3 was crowd-funded, and backers had been promised a Steam release. The developers walking back on that decision and deciding to release as an EGS exclusive didn’t sit very well with people.
