Judging from that update a full press release should be going out soon.

It'll be interesting to see what this means. This might be how the delay is being funded.

Deep Silver has a pretty hit-and-miss repertoire - they can proudly boast Metro and Saints Row as some of their flagship franchises, but then there's the shitters such as Dead Island, Ride to Hell: Retribution, Homefront: The Revolution, and, of course, Mighty No. 9 - but so long as they're able to do promotion of the game justice, as well as providing the necessary support without the game turning into one of the many publishers-fucking-developers stories you've all heard about, I think we're all good.

This tweet comes directly from a Deep Silver employee, meaning these promotional images are likely legit. Ryo doesn't look too bad - it's only really the hair that doesn't 'fit' and there's something off about the proportions - but Shenhua looks generic as fuck. She looks more like Xiuying than Shenhua; no softness or youthfulness to her face.

Yeah, Shenhua looks a little off. Ryo, besides the hair, looks basically like an updated:

- so I'm actually pretty pleased.

That fucking environment is A+++ though. Choubu?

Oh shit, I didn't see the Great Wall one. I guess that's in the game? Lololol, a walk along the Wall might be III's version of the Guilin walk.

I think the main key art confirms Choubu is based on Fenghuang, which is pretty cool.

I'm not sure how I feel about the partnership with Deep Silver.

You only have to look at the whole Dead Island 2 saga.

As long as they are only publishing and don't have any creative say into Shenmue 3, then I'm happy.

As for the new models... Ryo is getting there, but what's happening with Shenhua? Seems to be going in the opposite direction?

Another Shenmue III logo swap?

Lot of errors in the Press Text like "Hung-On" and "Virtua Figher"

Yeah, very cool!

(Seems there's a split with separate thread about the models so I've posted up the second "Great Wall" image there to keep them together).
