As promised last month, a new Shenmue III trailer went up over the weekend from developers Ys Net and Shibuya Productions.

Showing off some glimpses of the combat and, of course, more of Ryo's ongoing search for his father, the trailer was first shown off at the Monaco Anime Game International Conferences (or MAGIC, see what they did there?) event on Saturday.

The trailer also shows off a old staple of the series as our hero seeks to learn new techniques from one of the game's masters who seems keen on a tipple or two, check it out below:

  

Shenmue III development is 'steadily moving forward' according to a Kickstarter update accompanying this trailer, and all being well the game still appears to be on course for its August 27 release date on PlayStation 4 and PC.
