Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the fun and detailed game, engaging story, and nostalgic elements of Shenmue III. Many appreciate the price point and the inclusion of a steel book. However, some criticisms focus on the voice acting and controls, suggesting areas for potential improvement. The open world and martial arts aspects also receive positive feedback.

    If you've been waiting since the dreamcast/xbox days for a conclusion this is for you, everybody else? Hard pass. It looks dated and is definitely a throwback to a simpler time.

    Been a fan of the serious since the first two but it did not live up to its potential they still have not improved on the gameplay or mechanics but graphics were very nice

    Wow is this a dated and bad game. It really shows how this should've come out 15 years ago & fit in with the rest of the games on the dreamcast

    Between the gameplay, the character designs, and the voice acting I can't recommend this game at all.

    this is a good follow up in the series. game play mechanics can be dated but I guess it is true to 30 year old game. i would expect the the price to drop fast.

    After 14 yrs of waiting (at leaset for me) this is what we get. Ugly characters, boring mundane gameplay, and little story. Next time make a better game Yu.

    Gtaphics are ok. I find the game a little dull but I enjoyed it for the most part. I would recommend it if you know what you are getting.

    The game isn't very good. Only nostalgic fans would enjoy. However they never made upgrades to how modern games play. The combat is bad.

    Horrible and for all the time we waited for this to be made. I fell asleep playing this game multiple times. I don’t get how they thought they could get away with this lack of effort in graphics and controls. I played the first two and get why they were back then but come on... show some more effort. Beat the game and wanted my time back.

    Look it’s a Dreamcast came made for modern systems, but made even worse. I got it cheap and legit it’s still sealed.

    Despite waiting years for this, it was a bit slow and disappointing. It would have been nice if the gameplay had been updated more

    Its hard to recommend shemmue 3 because some parts of the game seems like a grind and the gameplay is outdated. Still can have fun with this game.

    If you liked the first two games you will enjoy this. But its another cliffhanger ending. They really should have wrapped it up in this one.
