However, backers will get the game another way.
According to emerging reports, some who backed the game are currently receiving emails asking for address confirmation. It’s not phishing in this case, so you definitely want to open it and confirm your address. Letting it languish unopened could potentially delay delivery, and the Shenmue 3 team did confirm through a Kickstarter update that this is a required action to finalize delivery addresses.
Still, it’s a good idea to check your inbox and confirm your address anyway if you haven’t already.
Meanwhile, if you can’t wait until November 19 to rejoin Ryo after all these years, don’t forget to check out the exclusive backer demo for PC players that lets you experience the game’s first day.
