There’s just half a day left to Ys Net’s Kickstarter campaign for almost mythical Shenmue 3 to actually get made. Like for reals this time. Really reals. A recent plea from Yu Suzuki has seen pledges pour in.
Right now more than 61,600 backers have pledged over $5,560,000, meaning if the numbers hold then it will finish higher than Koji Igarashi’s Bloodstained, which secured $5,545,991.
It looks like Shenmue 3 will be holding a new record for Kickstarter’s video games category.
The final hours of the Shenmue 3 Kickstarter will be live streamed on the official Twitch channel @ 4.00pm PDT / 12.00am GMT+1. The game is expected to release in 2017.
