The first Shenmue game takes place in 1986, in Yokozuka, Japan. If you beat the game once, you'll have the option to use "actual weather" from 1986-87. This will cause the weather conditions in Shenmue to precisely mirror the historical weather conditions of Yokosuka, down to the hour.

🪈🌸 Did you know that Shenhua's father, Mr Yuan, carved a flute from a branch of the Shenmue tree? The flute would bring comfort to Shenhua when she was younger... perhaps because of the deep connection she has with that ancient tree?

Take care of yourself this week, Shenmue fans. And look out for your close ones too, just like Ryo. Sometimes a cup of coffee and a quick chat is all it takes to make someone's day. ☕👥

The barbershop has a see-thru door, so the developers actually animated NPCs entering turning and walking deeper inside!?🤯

Sure, gaming is fun but have you heard of "cleaning"? 🧹 Don't skimp on the housework this weekend, let's keep things spick and span!
Also, who bets that Ine-san spends all day playing Ryo's Saturn while he's out and about? 😂

This scene right is what cements Ine-san as one of the most underrated characters in all of Shenmue! She cared so much about Ryo's well being that she didn't show him Yuanda Zhu's letter addressed to his father.
