Parker Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) Quote A high-definition remaster of the original Shenmue may be on the way, as SEGA has registered a domain for "Shenmue HD." As spotted by SEGA Nerds (via TSSZ) SEGA Europe registered the domainfor "Shenmuehd.com" in September 2016. History of Awesome - Dreamcast 05:02 Additionally, SEGABits discovered that SEGA Europe also registered two other Shenmue-related domain names in September of last year, those being "ShenmueRemastered.com" and the incorrectly spelled "Shemnuegame.com." As noted by TSSZ, the domain for "Shenmuegame.com," was already taken by someone else in 2015. With Shenmue III currently in development for PC and PS4, it appears SEGA could be looking to revisit the original game with a remaster before the third installment's release. In fact, just last year the company expressed interest in HD remasters for the first two games, saying, "we'd love to do it and are currently investigating how to make it a reality." 1 Source: IGN I know there have been rumors of HD remakes for Shenmue and Shenmue II for years but it seems like it may be real this time. If this is true I'll be buying it day one for sure, Shenmue revolutionized open world games and while it is a bit outdated today it is still a blast to play.

Stevieboy Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I never got a chance to play the 2 Shenmue games as I only briefly owned a Dreamcast and never owned the original Xbox. Would love a change to play them via HD remasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NullRay85 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Never got a chance to play both games, so these remaster are definitely on my radar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbuu3 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I hope these are coming out as I heard 2 didn't have a proper ending and jumping into 3 without prior knowledge does not sound fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Hardly a surprise considering how much Sony has been supporting the development of 3. Hopefully they don't change too much though, i'd hate to see the schlocky voice acting go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
