    Shenmue Revealed as ‘Most Influential Video Game of All Time’ according to BAFTA

    The British Academy Film Awards named Shenmue to be the most influential game of all time, according to a poll.

    Yu Suzuki, creator of the Shenmue franchise, said: I am deeply honoured and grateful that Shenmue has been selected as the Most Influential Video Game of All Time. At its inception, we set out to explore the question, “How real can a game become?”, aiming to portray a world and story unprecedented in scale and detail. This distinction serves as a powerful reminder that the challenge we embraced continues to resonate with and inspire so many people even today. It is truly the greatest of encouragement.

    “Above all, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the fans around the world who have continued to love and support Shenmue. Your passion and encouragement have guided this journey every step of the way. And the story is not over yet, there is more to come! Thank you very much!”


    That last part- Exciting and getting people's sights on the game can only help! #LetsGetShenmue4 everyone!

    After watching Althena graciously play the game for us, I gotta say I can absolutely see it! I'm looking forward to Shenmue 4, and the spin off games Shenmue Kart, Shenmuenite, Shenmuecraft, and - what might be my favorite - Shenmue Smash YO BROS!

      Very well deserved. I hope this gives them additional focus on creating more for the series at large.
