It appears that a big reveal of gameplay features and visuals tied to the new Virtua Fighter game is imminent. Overnight, part of what looks like an online presentation was leaked on Chinese video-sharing platform Bilibili, where it quickly spread like wildfire across Reddit and fighting-game discord channels.
The footage, which features four characters showing off new and old fighting techniques, gives us a glimpse of the game’s flashy visual presentation, which seems heavily inspired by recent games like Street Fighter 6. The fighting, however, remains true to Virtua Fighter’s roots of martial-arts realism, depicting some brutal-looking strikes, kicks, and grapples.
