Shenmue was released in 1999. No published benchmark of Shenmue is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 Ti as the minimum graphics card, an entry-level card by today's standards.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for Shenmue, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
