Shenmue 2 har været ude på Dreamcast ganske længe, men nu bytter spillet konsol og det andet kapitel vil være at finde på Xbox.
Så fans af serien som venter tålmodigt på tredje del, kan glæde sig over en opdateret Xbox version af det klassiske japanske RPG spil.
Shenmue 2 til Xbox vil være tilgængelig i Europa i løbet af vinteren 2002. Hvornår 3'eren er på trapperne er imidlertid endnu uvist.
Her følger et lille feature liste, efterfulgt af 12 nydelige screenshots:Features:
- A fully immersive world. The world of "Shenmue II" is alive with bustling Hong Kong activity. Day gradually turns to night and back to day. Clouds move across the sky, and sunshine changes to rain. People fill the streets as they go about their daily activities.
- Complete freedom to explore. Players are free to explore and "live" in Hong Kong. They can work, sleep, move about, fight, gamble and engage in many other activities. The streets are filled with virtually thousands of fully interactive characters.
- Solid 3-D fighting. Created by the same group that developed "Virtua Fighter," "Shenmue II" includes an advanced fighting system with more than 50 punches, kicks, holds and combos; it is the most-developed fighting system for a nonfighting game.
