This year will hopefully be a big one for Sega and the Virtua Fighter team on multiple fronts with their current game still receiving updates.
Sega has now released the Version 1.08 patch notes for Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage though it won’t be here for a little while yet.
This new patch is scheduled to drop next week on January 30 for Japan, which likely means January 29 for North America.
There are no balance changes found in the upcoming update, but there are quite a few fixes and a few interesting features like added support for ARM-based versions of Windows.
Sega is going to be holding the Virtua Fighter Open Championship on March 1, which is where we’re likely to see new reveals for the New Virtua Fighter Project.
