Professional reviews from gaming critics

Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. keeps the AM2 crafted experience as smooth as it can possibly be while bringing in a few welcome changes to base game. With Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. being at its core a simpler game to get into in terms of no frill mechanics, there is the deeper need for understanding the technicality, which in turn intensifies the challenge.

It’s hard to believe that Virtua Fighter 5 is still the latest entry in the ultra mega legendary fighting franchise… and it’s still going to turn 19 this year. Yes. Virtua Fighter 5 came out during the freaking Bush administration. It was groundbreaking for its time, being one of the true “next-gen” fighting games back when “next-gen” meant “it looks like an Xbox 360 game”. But oddly enough, it has never exactly disappeared. Between some revamped PC versions, Xbox backwards ...

Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. has a solid combat system, marred by poor netcode in a primarily online game. It does run well on Steam Deck though.
