SEGA confirms development of a new Virtua Fighter

During the Game Awards 2023, SEGA confirmed the return of several major licenses such as Crazy Taxi, Shinobi and Jet Set Radio. However, the Japanese publisher is not going to stop there.

In an interview with VGC, Justin Scarpone, who is in charge of the company's transmedia dimension, confirmed that a new opus of the Virtua Fighter saga is in development. The rumor had already been circulating since last March.

We have a series of titles in development that fall into this category, which we announced last year at the Game Awards: Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, Streets of Rage, Shinobi, and we have another Virtua Fighter in development. So it's all very exciting. In some cases, we're also making animated series or live-action films to complement these projects and integrate them into our roadmaps. “
