Originally released for the Dreamcast in 2000 and 2001, Shenmue I &
II is an open world action adventure combining jujitsu combat,
investigative sleuthing, RPG elements, and memorable mini-games. It
pioneered many aspects of modern gaming, including open world city
exploration, and was the game that coined the Quick Time Event (QTE).

A tale of revenge.
In 1986, teenage jujitsu artist Ryo Hazuki returns to the dojo of his
father, Iwao Hazuki, only to witness his murder by a Chinese man, Lan
Di. Lan Di steals a mysterious artifact known as the Dragon Mirror. Ryo
vows to avenge his father's death and sets out tracing Lan Di's path.
The first game in the series, Shenmue begins the tale as Ryo travels
around Yokosuka, Japan, gathering clues about his father's murder and
dealing with nefarious gangsters along the way.
The sequel Shenmue II continues Ryo's quest, this time crossing the sea
to Hong Kong, China. Ryo ventures deeper into the criminal underworld,
meeting martial arts masters who aid him on his journey and offer
insight into his father's death, and unravels the mysteries of the
Dragon Mirror that his father kept hidden.
