Now if only they'd bring back Virtual On: Cyber Troopers.

They did. There was a brand new entry on PS4 in 2017. I own it. Just didn't release in the west.



Bite my shiny metal cockpit!

I swear, I always end up saying "Virtual Fighter" instead of "Virtua Fighter".

Everybody does.

Ugh esport focus. Just shoot me in the head. Just add twitch and youtube integration and tie a noose around my neck while you're at it.



Awesome. Can't wait. Reboot, I'm thinking is not the same as a remake, so I wonder how many returning characters we're getting, and what new characters will be added. Maybe we'll get a better story too, and some flasher hitsparks, and stuff. Not on the levels of MvC, but something better than what they were doing.

I hope Eileen returns from 5, I really like her.

I just want Vanessa back... hopefully not whitewashed this time.

I think all that means in the case of a fighting game is that they are putting the main focus on the competitive play, character balancing and such, and less emphasis on singleplayer arcade modes and such. 

Well that sounds a lot better.  Perhaps you should become a marketer.  That would have been a better PR release.



Any gameplay shown? The fighting game eSports things is filled up at at the mo, is it not? Would prefer if they focus on normal consumers and have esports as a side effect.



Hmm, pie.
