During the Game Awards that took place this year we had the chance to see how SEGA was trying to revive many franchises that had been dormant for decades, among these legendary franchises we can find games like Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage and Shinobi.
In 1993, one of the franchises that would have the greatest influence in the world of one-on-one fighting games was created, developed by the SEGA AM2 studio and directed by Yu Suzuki, thus also marking the world of fighting games. 3D combat.
Information offered in an interview indicates that there is a possibility of reviving this franchise.
Although Virtua Fighter was not presented at The Game Awards as one of the sagas they were planning to bring back, Shuji Utsumi revealed in an interview with The Washington Postwho thought about it and said:
Right now we are evaluating it, Virtua Fighter doesn’t use too many tricks, special moves like in Street Fighter, it’s very realistic. How can we make this more dramatic? This is something we are working on at the moment.
