On the official website and during today's panel at New York Comic Con for Shenmue the Animation, it was announced that the anime will be released in Japan in 2022. It is an anime adaptation of Yu Suzuki's Shenmue game series, produced by Crunchyroll and Adult Swim.

After witnessing the murder of his father in the family dojo, Ryo dedicates his life to finding the culprit—a mission that takes him from the streets of Yokosuka, Japan, to the sprawling metropolis of Hong Kong and beyond. Soon, he learns that greater, mystical forces are at play as he trains to become the ultimate martial artist in his quest for revenge.
