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!

Welcome to 2018, fight fans!

I'm very pleased to announce that the Australian VF league, Virtua Fighter: Victory Road will return for the third year running with the 2018 season! There are hopefully some surprises to come, so keep your eyes peeled! Jump to the thread to read more and find out how you can participate!...

A little belated, but Happy New Years VFDC! Did you know that 2018 marks the 25th anniversary of Virtua Fighter? What do you think or hope this year might bring?

If you're a pro-wrestling fan, then you already know who Asuka is. If not, I'll help you get you up to speed.

If yesterday (13 Nov) was Good Knee Day, then today (14 Nov) is Good Elbow Day! Confused? Join the club!

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!

This weekend will be a particularly busy one for VF fans! Not only do we have the best of the west facing off in the 2017 OzHadou Nationals in Australia, but we also have, not one, not two, but THREE major Virtua Fighter tournaments in Japan as well!

Fans of Virtua Fighter are encouraged to tune into twitch.tv/gamrah on Saturday 16th September at 3PM AEST (or 1AM EDT for those on the East Coast of America, and Fri 10PM PDT for those on West Coast America) to catch the Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown Tournament at Australia's longest running Fighting Game Major.
