Virtua Fighter has just gone gold

Much has been said about Virtua Fighter 5 – from screenshot collections to gameplay videos. True, these things help abate the longing and thirst for this arcade-original fighting game, but after a while, you don’t want them anymore. You want the real game, the real action. With that said, we promise that this update is going to be one of the few, few last pre-release ones.

Why? Because developer Sega announced earlier today that their game has finally gone gold and is ready for mass production. They added that the game will surely become available in retail stores on February 20 for US$ 59.99. Also, Sega confirmed that Virtua Fighter 5 is going to be a launch title for Europe and Australia.

Launch title in Europe? But it seems that they’re having problems regarding announcements and other things. Well, we’ll all just take it with a grain of salt and hope for the best: maybe all the bad news is just a marketing strategy to keep the hype going?
