Coming off of the success of August’s Tweetathon the community came out in force once again and was rewarded with something truely amazing.
#LetsGetShenmue 4 and #Shenmue trended a combined total of 5 times within a 24 hour period from September 4th into September 5th.
The first sighting came on the afternoon of the 4th:

Even more unexpected was the combined number of posts coming in at over 8300 – smashing the previous nights posts and August’s tweetathon at the same time!
As ever Matt reviews the nights events here:
The community continues to do its part in keeping the Shenmue name alive and well. Thank you to everyone who comes out to support this initiative, for posting daily and helping us on the long road towards Shenmue 4. Surely someone somewhere is taking note of this?!
See you all next month October 4th!
