During the latest SEGA Central, SEGA Europe have answered some of the questions posted by fans during the #AskSEGA part of the video. Interestingly, community manager Dan Sheridan gave an answer with a bit more detail than usual on the question if SEGA was planning to release Shenmue 1 & 2 HD. Here’s a transcript of what Dan said exactly:
With regards to Shenmue 1 & 2 HD, of course we would love to release these tomorrow. Of course it’s not as simple as just porting the games to the current platforms, as we would need to ensure that any HD remaster lives up to the quality of the original titles. And with games as immersive as Shenmue 1 & 2, there are further complications from licensed prodcuts 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.
