Shenmue 3 Gets A New Prototype Video

Looks like development of Shenmue 3, the long anticipated final installment in the Shenmue saga, is coming along pretty well. Yu Suzuki, the director of the first two game who is also heading up development of the new title, gives us periodic reports of progress on the title’s development, which work, at the very least, to allay any fears or assuage any doubts that people might have had regarding the game’s status as potential vaporware.

These videos at least conclusively prove that Shenmue 3 is real, and that it is being actively worked upon. For instance, check out the new prototype video for the title that we received. it looks a bit rough, true, but it looks surprisingly good considering how early in development it presumably is.

Check out the video for yourself below, and tell us what you think in the comments section. Shenmue 3 is due out in 2017 on the PS4 and PC.
