[TGA 2024] SEGA and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio Announce New Virtua Fighter Project

SEGA has officially announced a new project in its legendary fighting game franchise, Virtua Fighter. The untitled game is currently in development by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, marking a significant moment for fans of the long-running series.

While specific details remain limited, SEGA has scheduled a “Virtua Fighter Direct 2024” livestream to provide more information. The event is set to take place on December 12 at 9:00 p.m. PT / December 13 at 12:00 a.m. ET. Fans can tune in via YouTube (in English and Japanese) and Twitch to catch the latest updates.

This announcement comes nearly two decades after the last numbered entry in the series. The original Virtua Fighter debuted in 1993 with its arcade version, with Virtua Fighter 5 first hitting arcades in 2006 and receiving multiple revisions since then.

Early indications suggest the game will likely feature series veterans like Akira and Sarah, though official confirmations are pending. According to initial reports, the new game in the fighting game franchise is expected to launch in 2025 for PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X. The project is part of SEGA’s broader strategy to revive several of its classic franchises.

Fans and fighting game enthusiasts are encouraged to watch the upcoming Direct for more comprehensive details about this exciting new project.
