A physical PS4 copy of Shenmue 3 has finally been added to the game’s Kickstarter.
“This is one of the most requested items on the list, and we are very happy to be able to include the Shenmue 3 PS4 Kickstarter Backer’s Edition as a Reward,” reads the Kickstarter update. “If you are a Shenmue fan and PS4 gamer, this is the reward to have to commemorate the occasion!”
All backers pledging for a $60 Reward tier or higher have the option to choose a physical PS4 copy. Once the Kickstarter finishes a survey will be sent out to backers in $60+ tiers to confirm their platform choice from the following:
1. PS4 Physical Copy
2. PS4 Digital Copy
3. Windows PC Physical Copy
4. Windows PC Digital Copy.
Those who have already pledged for a PC Physical copy don’t need to adjust their rewards if they now want a PS4 copy – this will be handled with the post-Kickstarter survey.
The PS4 Physical Copy Reward is just one of a range of new rewards added to the campaign over the weekend, with the others designed for the Shenmue super fans.
