Shenmue 3 Progress Update To Come Next Week

Shenmue 3

Even though almost nothing is known about the game, Shenmue 3 is one of the more anticipated titles launching in the future on PlayStation 4 and PC. Fans of the series have waited a long time to see how Ryo’s journey ends so expectations are very high. Thankfully it seems like we won’t have to wait much longer to learn more about how development is progressing.

Earlier today the Shenmue 3 Official Twitter profile has revealed that a progress update will be coming next week, with testing shots also coming. With the Paris Games Week 2015 Sony conference also coming next week, there’s a good chance that this progress update will come during the Japanese company conference.

Despite the Shenmue 3 Kickstarter campaign being the more successful one ever, it seems like the money pledged to the project is not going to be enough to realize Yu Suzuki’s vision for the game. Last month a new funding campaign called the Shenmue 3 Slacker Backer campaign has been launched, allowing those who haven’t been able to contribute to the Kickstarter campaign to pledge money to the project. This new campaign will last until December, so there’s still plenty of time to pledge money and help Yu Suzuki and the team in developing the best game possible.

Not counting the Shenmue 3 Slacker Backer campaign, no much else has been said about the game. Back in July series creator Yu Suzuki stated that development had just started and that the team will keep listening to fans’ feedback in order to make Shenmue 3 the best entry of the series.

Shenmue 3 will be released on a yet to be confirmed date on PlayStation 4 and PC. We will keep you updated on the game as soon as more comes in on it so make sure to stay tuned for all the latest news.

PAYDAY 3 Developer Announces D&D Live Service Multiplayer

The Starbreeze cooperative multiplayer game Project Baxter is expected to follow PAYDAY. The official Dungeons & Dragons logo is on Starbreeze. However, we do not expect the studio to revere RPG settings like Larian did with Baldur’s Gate 3.

Starbreeze will develop and publish Project Baxter in 2026 for all major platforms. The company says it “will carry the signature Starbreeze game cornerstones of cooperative multiplayer, lifetime commitment through a Games as a Service model, community engagement, and a larger than life experience.”

Forgive the skepticism, but PAYDAY 3, Starbreeze’s latest release, lagged behind due to server issues that the CEO had to apologize for, taking two months to release the heist shooter’s first patch. It’s a disappointing story that may have gone unnoticed in a year with The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, Kong: Rise of Skull Island, and The Walking Dead: Destinies.

Would you like a Starbreeze multiplayer live service D&D game? Is this to capitalize on the setting’s moment between Baldur’s Gate and the surprising good Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves?

Free Soccer Simulator Finally More Single Player on eFootball, But Not Like League

Konami promised that free-to-play soccer sim eFootball would add PES’ massively popular Master League mode, but while this month’s v3.20 update will add more solo content, you’ll have to wait. My League lets you play full seasons as a single player with changing weather and exclusive rewards to reduce the wait.

You’ll replace a real team from your league, like England or Italy. The gacha system unlocks players that you’ll use to fight the AI and win the table. Play through the mode as many times as you want, with custom cutscenes and other features to track your progress. It all seems like a way to make dream team gameplay appealing to offline players.

Online play is also getting better. A new tier system will match you with players of similar skill levels, and co-op will soon let you join strangers instead of friends. You can use emojis to discuss your matches’ successes and failures or strategize with new allies.

We assume new cards with perks will allow Konami to create “rarer” versions of players when they perform certain real-life feats. A new login feature will include a penalty-taking minigame where you must score a goal to climb a ladder and unlock in-game rewards like virtual currency. For now, that’s it.

The critically panned game improves, but not as fast as former PES fans would like. The gameplay is good, and there are more things to do, but without that meaty single-player mode, old-school franchise fans will always rank it lower. Konami should revive one of the best solo sports game modes soon.

This could reach 100 million by the end of the day as it’s shared worldwide and fans search for Easter eggs and secrets. How many times have you seen the new trailer?
