I'm so glad the PS4 version will be updated. I am freaking excited. If vf6 is a bit of a wait, this (for me) will help.

Rollback is one thing but balance changes is another....
Fingers crossed for Cross-play...

I wonder if PS4 will get rollback as well.

No more AM2 so Sega'll just repackage this partial FS remake forever, ah well. I guess I'm good sticking with my usual futzing around in FS with custom costumes and Special Sparring. ^ _^ At least 5* won't be console-exclusive anymore--that was just silly.

I'm just...I'm dunno...I...just....*heavy sigh*

I'm so tired of VF5. It's been 18 years now. Please can we move on!!!

But...a version 2 update? With rollback netcode? I'm intrigued. But dammit, it better be big. Like "online quest mode" big. Or at the very least, can we get all the customization options from FS?

Please don't let this be the thing that guy was talking about in that interview. Please please Sega. Let there be a "6" somewhere...PLEASE!!!

I always wrestled with getting a PS4, just for VF, the urge would wax and wane... Now I just have to be patient to enjoy it in 4K!

Could never fathom why it didn't come to Steam sooner, it's a relief to know it'll be in a superior, supported state when it does with balance adjustments that may allow me to not feel so rusty!

I like the new logo, hope it stays for VF6. Rollback code is good news. VF on Steam is also good news. But I wish this is the last 5, before VF6.

"revival of popular skills" means that change moves are coming back baby.

An easier to play environment and adjustments to skill performance? That worries me.

I'mmm gonna go ahead and guess this is the only VF they've been working on.

And the description mentions no customization whatsoever. And the only thing mentioned for single-player is Arcade mode.

Just saying, don't get your hopes up for there being more than that.

The full google translate of the sentence is

"An easier-to-play environment has been created, including adjustments to skill performance and the revival of popular skills familiar to the series."

Not sure that sounds like new moves or moves from previous iterations. Almost sounds more like a simple controls mode.

Oh there is a new Takenobu Mitsuyoshi (Daytonaaaaa guy) song, though:

Hoping we get all the costumes with the base game

I wouldn’t trust the Google translation. I’m sure we’ll hear more details soon.

I’m still learning Japanese and I’m not fluent but from what I understand from the original text, it’s a general description on the gameplay balance that they worked on and how it may make the game more accessible.

There is a part that I think literally says move/technique adjustment, but it may also refer to the general theme of gameplay balance and not a specific feature.

Man, been waiting so long to play this on PC/STEAM !
Will have to pick up a 4K-TV Monitor with a high refresh rate for my PC during Black Friday/Cyber Monday.
Also, a great time to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11.
Going to be great playing with similar skilled opponents in ranked once again.
With that said, the game is now on my STEAM wishlist.

I'd like to see Akira's wall throw return, lol.

Though it's not exactly a new VF, it coming to PC in 4K with rollback netcode is pretty friggin sweet. I was just waiting around to renew my PS+ on a black Friday or Christmas deal since it's so expensive now.

But this is fantastic news. Maybe we'll see some Tekken players migrate over since the heat mechanic and other things in T8 has people not liking the game. I'm pretty hyped for the game. Hopefully we see more customization options transition over to this.
