Virtua Fighter's first major tournament for Europe in 2019 is the Sakura Fight Festa!
Taking place on 4-5 May in London, registration is now open for a great selection of games including Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown! European players, get out there and support the game on your turf!

As 2018 has come to a close, so has the 25th Anniversary of Virtua Fighter. As a tribue, both @MadeManG74 and I thought it'd be fun to commemorate the occasion by compiling a list of 25 things you probably didn't know about Virtua Fighter!

Please support this awesome community!

Not even a month after EVO proved that VF can have major turnout at the world’s fighting game tournament, NYG 13 wrapped up the “Summer of VF” at iFixMachine. NYG has always been about celebrating what makes Virtua Fighter great, and this year was no exception. Featuring tough competition, close exhibitions, and some of the wildest Sega fighting action of all time, the 3-day event was non-stop fun.

Virtua Fighter made it to the stage and stream of Evo 2018, and it was a community driven effort. With an outstanding turnout, great matches on display and a great collaboration the event is something to be proud of for all involved and proof that the Virtua Fighter community can make great things happen. Read on for full results, wrap-up and more!
