Yu Suzuki e il suo team hanno aggiornato la pagina ufficiale di Kickstarter dedicata a Shenmue 3, il tanto atteso terzo capitolo della serie che fu annunciato nel corso dell’E3 di Los Angeles che si è tenuto a giugno di quest’anno.
All’interno della pagina è possibile trovare nuove informazioni sul gioco, che abbiamo riportato di seguito, insieme a quattro nuove immagini completamente dedicate alle boss fight che il nostro protagonista affronterà all’interno della storia di Shenmue 3:
Greetings Everyone!
Yes, we are in the third month of development of Shenmue 3. The story and scenarios are now out of the planning stage and it is time to get the people, places and things to start fitting together into a world with proper dimension, adequate space, and appropriate scale to keep the feel and essence of all that is a Shenmue game.
Map Testing
In this phase of the development, the major work being done is the map testing. Map testing will define the different areas to make sure they are neither too big, nor too small to get to that Goldilocks zone. This consists of looking at the layout of a certain space, and experimenting to make necessary alterations. For example, an outside area may feel too open. That space may be reduced by 20%, and the number of people there increased from 10 to 16, to affect the proper consistency and density of the area.
All elements in the following screen shots are still in testing. Objects are being used as place holders, like the men in black suits, and Ryo is also an older model. Backgrounds and buildings are also still in the development stage and will see reworking. Shots for the two battle scenes were taken at angle to avoid spoilers as much as possible.
Vi ricordiamo, infine, che Shenmue 3 sarà disponibile nel 2017 su PC e PlayStation 4.
