Although we are still a few months away from the release date for Deep Silver and Ys Net's ridiculously long-awaited
Shenmue III, fans are about to get access to the game's demo — although this will only be available for some of the Kickstarter backers.
As recently revealed,
Shenmue III's demo will become available for PC players who backed the game's Kickstarter, and they will be able to download it from the Epic Games Store at some point during the
second half of September.
According to the information revealed about the demo, players will have access to a standalone act that would take place around the first act of
Shenmue III, which will have players exploring Bailu Village for the limited time; offering an hour of gameplay to the game's backers.
One thing that has also been confirmed, is that the
Shenmue III demo will not allow players to save their progress and continue playing once the full version is finally released on the
19th of November.
