Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. launches January 28, 2025, open beta test now available

As a seasoned gamer who has been around since the 90s, I can hardly contain my excitement for Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O., especially after witnessing its evolution from the original game to Ultimate Showdown and now this magnificent reboot. The nostalgia is palpable with the inclusion of classic SEGA hardware as in-game customization items, reminding me of late nights spent on my Mega Drive and Dreamcast.

On January 28, 2025, the PC edition of “Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O.” will debut on Steam, priced at $19.99. Sega and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio have made this announcement. Pre-orders are currently being accepted at a reduced price of 20% off. An open beta test runs until December 17. The updated version 2.0 for the PlayStation 4’s “Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown” is accessible now as well.
