Shenmue Gets a Namecheck From… The Muppets?!

Posted on December 12, 2025 at 20:38 PM GMT

We were all waiting to see whether or not Shenmue IV would make an appearance at The Game Awards this week, following the now-disproved rumours and fake trailer. And whilst we didn’t get the announcement we were all secretly hoping for, we did get something altogether weirder…

As part of the festivities, Miss Piggy and Rowlf the Dog from The Muppets took to the stage and performed a song which included a mention of Shenmue. Don’t believe us? See for yourself! Skip to around 4:45 to see our beloved series get a shoutout in front of millions of streamers.

In the battle for Shenmue’s future, we’ll take all the help we can get… even from beloved children’s puppets!

More character renders for this previously unseen character named "Mao". She appears to have a mongolian background, but what's her relationship to Ren who also has ties to a Mongolian horse tribe? ๐Ÿ‡

Will Mao still appear in the future of the #Shenmue series!? #LetsGetShenmue4
