The 3rd Japan Fighting Game Publishers Roundtable will be streamed live on March 21st, 3-5:30 PM JST on both the VF Official Youtube Channel and on the Arc System Works Twitch Channel. This will be the first time Sega participates in the Roundtable. You can expect each company to give an update to their fighting game series in this Roundtable.

What should you do when you are not 100% sure if your opponent will attempt a throw? A good option is to input/buffer a throw escape! In Final and Ultimate Showdown, you can only choose to escape one throw direction at a time. In "Chanchai's Throw Escape Theory", Chanchai gives his opinion on what throw escape direction you should choose. You can read his article on his Evernote Blog and discussed the topic here or in his VFDC thread.

Hey guys, It's Jed. At the request of @MadeManG74 , i'll be writing a short post on something major that happened to VF recently.

Some new advancements in Naomi 2 emulation have recently been made by Flyinghead, the same guy who brought rollback netcode to VF3tb last year. VF4, VF4EVO, and VF4FT are now all supported by Flycast which has built in Rollback Netcode, Training Mode, and some nice QOL features that make getting into VF4 much easier and more fun in 2022.

A new year so let's try again to summarize the VF tournaments/events around the world! We celebrate the new year with a massive 5-person online team tournament organized by Tetsuko's Room. January 2022 also marked the beginning of the 2nd Challenge Cup series and North America had its first major offline event at the Frosty Faustings!

DrScottnik has produced a wonderful video showcasing the VF community, and how it has thrived since the release of Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown. Many notable community members from around the world participated in this mini documentary to share their experiences and provide their unique take on all things Virtua Fighter -- check it out!

The first update of the year is a patch to resolve an issue for players that transferred their account to a different PS4 system.

Last Updated: March 15, 2022 Update - The 2nd Challenge Cup is Sega's official VF5US (Known as VFeS in Japan) events for Japan running from January to March 2022! The Finals for the FREE and U22 categories this March will conclude the Season 0 events! Since the 1st Challenge Cup, several changes have been made to the format.

Arya from That Blasted Salami (TBS) in collaboration with WIreman, Seidon, and Blessy, created short overviews for all 19 characters in VF5US. Check out these videos to help you find a character that meshes with your style or to see if the description in the video matches with your opinion on a character.

I think it is safe to say that outside of Japan, many players have had trouble finding matches quickly or have trouble finding people that you have a good connection with. Here, we are trying to make it easier for fellow VF players to network and play online.

In a joking manner, Hima Jean tweeted "My connection tells me get a pen instead of an arcade stick lol". He has indeed figuratively taken to the pen this past week. He has written a couple VF-related articles for his newly formed blogs: Underground Arena.net (Blog written in English) and on Note.com (blog written in Japanese).
