Shenmue Patch 3 is live on the beta branch - 07 September 2018

Hi Shenmue fans,



We’ve pushed the latest patch to the beta branch. This addresses a number of issues, including high CPU usage some of you are experiencing. If you’ve already opted into our previous beta build and are still on the branch, the patch will download automatically (the password is the same: luhIQLdMeQoDatbibCxK ).



As always, participation in this patch is voluntary. If you are not experiencing any of the issues below we recommend you stay on the default branch and do not download the patch.



Your feedback helps us a great deal. Please report any issue you encounter post-patch in this thread with your system specs.



To access the beta branch:

Right-click Shenmue I & II in your game library and select Properties.

Select the BETAS tab.

Enter the password luhIQLdMeQoDatbibCxK and press the CHECK CODE button (N.B. don’t press enter, you’ll close the whole window by mistake).

Choose beta in the drop-down menu.

The build will start downloading.
