Do a Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg crossover next!
The sudden release ofVirtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdownwas one of 2021’s most welcome surprises. After sitting on the sidelines for most of the last generation of consoles, Sega’s premier fighting franchise got a chance to remind everyone why it’s considered one of the best ever with an updated version of what is arguably the best game in the series. WhenUltimate Showdowndropped on PS4 earlier this year, it did so with aDLC pack of polygonal costumesfor its combatants. Next week, even more looks are set to arrive with theVirtua FighterYakuzacostumes pack.
As you can see in the trailer, not only are you getting 19Yakuzacharacter costumes for the game, but the DLC pack will include 20 background music tracks from the series as well, approximately 650 different character customization options from pastVirtua Fightergames, 20 music tracks fromVirtua Fighter 3, and spectator stickers for when you want to watch other people duke it out online. In all honesty, that’s where I’ve spent most of my time withUltimate Showdownas anytime I attempt to fight online, I get my ass handed to me. I love me some El Blaze, but lord knows I am no good with him when facing people who actually know how to play this game.
TheVirtua Fighter 5 Ultimate ShowdownxYakuzaDLC pack will be available starting December 8.Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdownis available exclusively for PlayStation 4 and is part of the PlayStation Now subscription service.
