akai · Nov 7, 2022

Last Updated November 7, 2022. The major announcement for this weekend is that Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown--known as Virtua Fighter eSports in Japan--will be a main title game at EVO Japan 2023. Not a side tournament game, but a main tournament game!

Main Website: https://www.evojapan.gg/

Announced at the end of Challenge Cup 1.2 Finals

Just quickly posting it up here until I or someone else in the community have time to post more info on this.

Wonder if there will be some announcement there..

VF been out my mind recently tbh, but thinking about a potential new VF6 with crazy modern graphics, w some new innova mechanics and awesome netcode sounds very exciting.

Getting excited for Evo!
Never been to one before.

Will there be setups for us to get in casual matches of VF?

akai · Feb 22, 2023

One week left, VF now has over 500 participants.

Edit: And I see a lot of strong "active" Japan VFers have not registered yet...so it won't be a surprise to hit 600.

For the stream portion of Virtua Fighter, I assumed it will be Ryan Hart and Spooky maybe?

Edit: Markman also!

Tasty Steve and Ryan Hart as the two commentators who have gameplay experience over the other options here.

Have any Americans or Europeans landed yet (who are VFDC members) ?
Sounds like there is a big representation from both groups
And I am sure they are hitting the arcade scene while they wait for the tournament to start up !
