Lakshya Digital was recently announced as an outsourcing partner with YsNet for the creation of NPCs in Shenmue III. (As you might recall, Yu Suzuki mentioned that Deep Silver's additional funding was going to enable him to increase the number of NPCs in Choubu from 50-60 to 200.) The usual sloppy reporting and trolling has accompanied this announcement, so here are a few facts about Lakshya Digital. They're headquartered in Gurgaon, New Delhi, India and have offices in San Diego and Seattle.

Here is a list of games they've contributed assets to:

Full Throttle: Remastered   (2017)
NieR: Automata   (2017)

Not a bad resume, I assume they are sort of an asset farm then?

The character models are looking pretty good. We've come a long way from that early E3 2016 teaser.

Core Voice Cast Returning for Shenmue Anime Series



Quote
The core voice cast from the games will return in the anime.
Also though he’s listed as an executive producer, Yuu Suzuki describes his position more as a “supervisor on the world-building”.
For example, making sure Ryo doesn’t pick up a knife to fight, or that a particular character would or wouldn’t say a particular thing.
Suzuki will also ensure there is a sense of urgency portrayed throughout the series.

Shenmue World Unofficial Fan Magazine is Funded



Quote
Hello everyone! I never expected that after just over 24 hours of being live here on Kickstarter, we would already have smashed past the intended goal!
That is actually mind blowing to me, but it just goes to reinforce the passion and drive that Shenmue fans have always shown.
I will keep you all updated on the process and progress as we go through the remaining days.
I may also have another small surprise planned if any extra funds allow it :).
