Shenmue 3 er på vej, og skulle meget gerne ankomme en gang sent i 2017. Efter afsløringen af det tredje kapitel i den populære serie, er opmærksomheden omkring serien steget markant, og for at sætte yderligere gang i begejstringen, så overvejer udvikleren SEGA at lave remasters af de første to kapitler.
Ifølge SEGA's Community Manager Dan Sheridan arbejder SEGA faktisk på dette projekt lige nu. Han sagde nemlig følgende i den seneste udgave af SEGA Central:
"Sadly, it's not as simple as porting the games to current platforms as we will need to ensure that any HD remaster lives up to the quality of the original titles,"
"And with games as immersive as Shenmue 1 and 2, there are further complications from licensed products that were included in the original games. That said, we'd love to do it and are currently investigating how to make it a reality."
