SEGA has released a new trailer for VIRTUA FIGHTER CROSSROADS introducing Lionel Rafale, a young fighter who appears in the game’s story. VIRTUA FIGHTER CROSSROADS is scheduled to launch in 2027.
Lionel is strong enough to overpower Cielo, the protagonist, in a street fight. But what brought him to Vilasapara remains a mystery. One thing is clear: this extraordinarily strong fighter is one to watch.
The Stories of Four Protagonists in Vilasapara
VIRTUA FIGHTER CROSSROADS blends the deep, fluid fighting the Virtua Fighter series is known for with RGG Studio’s cinematic storytelling. The story follows four protagonists whose beliefs and pasts collide in a life-changing adventure.
All of these stories center on Vilasapara, a fictional Southeast Asian metropolis known as a city of fighters. The city is made up of several areas, from a walled downtown to entertainment and resort districts.
As you explore each location, you’ll come across plenty of side stories and quests tied to the people who live there.
Online Play and Story Mode
Alongside online matches, you’ll take on a range of dramatic battles in Story Mode, including fights against multiple enemies at once and boss battles.
