In the ever growing list of everything SEGA can do to mention Virtua Fighter in the public sphere without yet including the all-important number "6" in a title, there will be a live twitch event on the Sega channel scheduled for Saturday 2 AM GMT (yes, that's two a.m. in the morning, Greenwich Mean Time). That's not a lot of time left between now and then, so read on for the (scarce) details.

On Sunday, 11 February 2018, the 2018 Tokai Cup was held at Club Sega in Fushimi, Nagoya. Tournament format was 5-on-5 and a whopping 12 hours of footage with 275 matches was captured. Full timestamps and character usage summaries provided within!

Next month, from February 9 through to February 11th, is the 2018 JAEPO: Japan Amusement Expo! What does this mean for Virtua Fighter? There’s nothing officially announced, but is there a chance that we’ll see some news regarding the franchise at JAEPO this year? Let’s go over the last couple of years worth of Virtua Fighter related news and any potential hints for some fun speculation!

This past Wednesday, VFDC community member Blitzball Champ hosted his 83rd VF Arena, a weekly online gathering that has allowed fans of the game to find opponents more than five long years after Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown hit consoles. Blitzball has hosted VF Arenas on Xbox Live as well as on Playstation Network, VF5FS as well as VF5 vanilla, and even a Virtua Fighter 2 room, truly helping the community at large stay sharp while we all wait for SEGA’s next move. To commemorate these contributions to our community, we asked Blitzball Champ to answer some questions about his history with the game and his accomplishments.

Saturday 16th September 2017 saw the running of the 15th annual OzHadou Nationals (OHN) fighting game tournament in Sydney, Australia. Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown was featured as a "medal game" and drew an impressive turnout by comparative standards. With all of Australia's heavy hitters present and accounted for, a healthy contingent of new challengers, a returning vet and a surprise International guest, OHN15 had all the ingredients for one exciting event!

It's back, baby! The Official VFR twitter channel just announced the 16th Beat Tribe Cup to be held on 31 March 2018 at Toyosu PIT, Tokyo Japan!
