Sega Global Transmedia Group Justin Scarpone in an interview with VideoGamesChronicle announced a new entry in the fighting series, Virtua Fighter, is in development.
"So we have a suite of titles in development right now that fall into that legacy bucket, which we announced last year at The Game Awards; Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, Streets of Rage, Shinobi, and we have another Virtua Fighter being developed," said Scarpone.
"And so all that’s very exciting. And then in certain instances, we’re also doing animation series, or live-action films to augment that and be part of those roadmaps."
The last entry in the series, Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown, released for the PlayStation 4 in June 2021.
