WHOA! For real? I'm working so I can't do the full detail, but VF5 is officially coming to Steam?
Wow, awesome surprise! I was resigned to thinking that non-PS players would never get any more VF until VF6, if even then... great idea to boost interest before that finally and formally shows its self.
wishlisted, will buy on day 1... tho my PC (laptop) may prove to be too sub-par (steam page already up, btw: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3112260/Virtua_Fighter_5_REVO/)
dat Engrish song in the trailer tho.. XD

Yeah, I can't wait to buy it on Steam. I'm transferring most of my collection over to Steam and keeping my Series X for the boosted XBOX originals and 360 titles that are still bound. I'm 90% done with consoles, but they still have a few purposes. Japanese ecosystems require you to pay for Cloud Save and I'm good on that.
If anyone wants matches when it comes out hmu for Steam information.

To test the waters (rollback netcode, finally)? Because PC/Steam doesn't have a VF5 (or any VF game for that matter) and now does, potentially gaining more interest in the game? Personally, I would just think of it as a taste for what's to come when VF6 eventually gets announced.

Broskis, my heart jumped when I saw the announcement. All the nostalgia. Almost got wet eyes lol. Hope to see you guys online! Crossplay won't be a thing though? Steam forums are already complaining
Since no one made the announcement earlier, I might as well come out with it: Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. is one of the seven games announced for EVO Japan 2025. Both VF5REVO and Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike will be 5v5 tournaments.
Why? That's because both The 19th Beat-Tribe Cup and Cooperation Cup Vol. 19 will be taking place at EVO Japan 2025 this year! For the first time ever in Beat-Tribe Cup history, a Virtua Fighter game will be run on PC instead of an arcade cabinet. It may also be worth mentioning that this week marked the 30th Anniversary of VFR and the 1st Athena Cup, which later became the Beat-Tribe Cup!

I honestly can’t wait. Anything to excuse me from watching another humiliating Tekken 8 EVO tournament. May VF swiftly kick the competition to the curb.
There could be a chance that we could see an Open Beta for Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. since it was datamined. It might be likely announced around The Game Awards, but we'll find out soon enough.

'Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. Open β' Listing Appears on SteamDB
According to SteamDB, a hidden listing entitled Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. Open β has been added to Steam's backend.

From what little I see, the game looks fun, it looks like they're taking more risks by getting more like a typical action fighter. Love the visuals, they look a bit like they took some inspo from doa and I noticed that Sarah's main flip has a different recovery animation. They're likely doing a massive kit overhaul for everyone.
Hope they'll add more hurt sounds tho, one thing I dislike about vf is that safe for the attacking sounds the characters are mostly silent aside from that one grunt they all do which gets stale. Hopefully they'll have more interaction and dialogue
