Sega has confirmed that Virtua Fighter 5 REVO will be ported to Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
Virtua Fighter 5 REVO is an enhanced version of a fighting game that first hit Japanese arcades in 2006. It was released on PC in January and added features like rollback netcode and 4K support to Virtua Fighter 5. The news of these ports came during a Virtua Fighter Direct held on May 11. While no release date for these new versions was confirmed, Sega confirmed that cross-play support will come as part of the console release, so people can play together no matter what platform they play on.
Legacy Virtua Fighter Projects Producer Seiji Aoki also teased that "we're going to include even more content to make this much more than a simple port," but did not elaborate on what he meant by that.
This Virtua Fighter 5 REVO news wasn't the only reveal of the series' latest direct. Sega and Nvidia kicked off the Virtua Fighter Open Champions, a worldwide tournament with a grand prize of $100,000.
Sega also briefly teased the next game in the Virtua Fighter franchise, which was revealed at The Game Awards 2024. A redesigned Wolf Hawkfield was revealed as a fighter, while an extended dev diary aired, delving into the art direction goals for the new Virtua Fighter game. There's still no word on a release window for this still-unnamed Virtua Fighter game.
Virtua Fighter 5 REVO is available on PC and in development for Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
