Sony’s Gio Corsi Discusses A Possible Shenmue HD

This generation has been a good one for gaming, as projects that were long believed to be dead and gone have been brought back from the grave by enterprising console manufacturers and third party publishers. Everything from Bayonetta 2, Devil’s Third, and Star Wars Battlefront III has been given a second shot at the market, much to the jubilation of fans everywhere.

Now it seems Sony may be wanting in on the party as well- we’ve heard the possibility of a PlayStation 4 exclusive Shenmue 3, co-funded by Sony, before, and now, Sony is discussing the possibility of a Shenmue HD on the PlayStation 4 as well.

Apparently, this is an issue that is not off the table, and Sony is confident that a Shenmue HD can be done by Sony’s Third Party Production Team and Sega, especially given their recent success in getting Yakuza 5 localized. There are certain legal issues involved, but Sony has stated that fans should continue to be vocal.

We’ll keep you posted.
