Virtua Fighter 5 Announced Exclusively for PS3

None

Sega has announced that Virtua Fighter 5 will be coming exclusively to the PlayStation 3 in the Spring of 2007. The game will feature an all-star cast of seventeen fighters, including characters from the previous games along with two new characters named El Blaze and Eileen. El Blaze is a Mexican fighting champion who defeats opponents with his quick Lucha Libre fighting style. Eileen, originally from China, uses a Monkey Kung-Fu fighting style that she learned from her grandfather, a former Kung-Fu master. Players will be able to customize their characters by selecting from four uniquely patterned costumes and a wide range of attachable items that can be placed onto each fighter’s various body parts.

“Virtua Fighter 5 will offer fans the ultimate next-generation fighting game experience,” commented Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing at Sega. “For years, the industry has talked about bringing the arcade experience to the living room. Virtua Fighter 5 fulfills this promise, and then some.”
