How to Health Your Health in Shenmue 3

In Shenmue 3, eating and drinking play an important role in gameplay, unlike in previous Shenmue games in which eating served no real purpose and drinking was really just for show.

Indeed, you will need to make sure that Ryo eats food every day in order to restore his health and heal, which doesn’t only deplete when in combat. It will constantly drain as he walks or runs around exploring the environment.

Food can be bought from stores or food stalls for Yuan, or you can find them lying around in places like Shenhua’s house.

Presumably, you are only just starting your Shenmue 3 adventure if you’re reading this guide, and so we’ve got a quick tip that will help you in these early stages: Every morning of a new day you can check the kitchen in Shenua’s house and grab a few food items, as they restore each day.

That should be everything you need to know about how to heal your health in Shenmue 3. For more useful tips and guides on the game, we encourage you to check out our guide wiki. We will have extensive coverage over the coming days.
