From the first moment that Shenmue III began to show the progress of its development, the controversy arisen by its finish did not predict anything good. The third installment of Yu Suzuki's classic failed to meet the expectations placed on this project either at the playable level or at the history level, which resulted in a launch well below what was expected by the producer Deep Silver.
Deep silver it states Shenmue 3 sales are below expectations. At the moment, it is impossible to quantify the number of sales of the Epic Store, but on PlayStation it would have had about 50,000 users in the third quarter of fiscal year 2019-2020. This is one of the reasons why the company has been forced to reduce its financial projections.
As we say in our analysis of Shenmue III, it is a tribute to a whole generation that lived the story of Ryo Hazuki and the revolution of the concept of open world game or sandbox between 1999 and 2001 with the launch of its second installment. 18 years later, he manages to transmit part of his legacy, but seems to be far from offering a proposal to match.
