First and foremost, thank you all so much for the support that you have given us. We never expected the project to be received so well. These last few days have been incredible. I've received so many private messages and emails that its starting to create a backlog. We'll get back to all of you, so keep those requests and questions coming in. (500k members make a dojo account)
UPDATE 1: Shenmue Gaiden Facebook Page The first update is our new Facebook page. Everyone interested in this project please like and share the page. Both of us will be posting content over there and its a good way to interact with members who do not have an account on Shenmuedojo.
https://www.facebook.com/ShenmueGaidenWe need 25 likes apparently to change the url to something shorter.
UPDATE 2: Exclusive Cinematic Pack Riken Productions has agreed to create an exclusive cinematic pack for the release of Shenmue Gaiden. Expect something amazing.
UPDATE 3: New Staff We have a ton of new staff joining the project. New voice actors, writers, composers and even some programmers. We've also recruited the amazing individual that created the Shenmue revenge trailer to help promote the Shenmue 3 Kickstarter.
The staff section of the main page will be updated over the weekend.
UPDATE 4: Amazing Voice Actress Joins The TeamAdoxographist is a talented, independent voice actress and has offered to help us with the project. Check out her demo reel here.

Shenmue Gaiden is starting to attract the gaming media, which is both scary and exciting at the same time. I really hope we're able to produce this game together. There's always a chance that it may be canceled. Hopefully those officially associated with Shenmue see how much passion the community has and how much work we're put in to this project; not to forget all the work we've all done for the past 15 years.
