Shenmue is a cult classic, and Shenmue III one of the more hotly anticipated games coming this fall. The game continues the story of Ryo Hazuki, picking up after the last game released in 2001. Players will be able to explore a ton of locales, solve puzzles, take part in mini-games, and work on their kung-fu skills throughout the game.

This time around, there's an intense focus on building relationships with characters and mastering kung-fu to take out a raft of dangerous foes.

Shenmue III is available to preorder now for $50 at Amazon for PlayStation 4. The PC version should be available to preorder soon as well.
