Virtua Fighter 5 Revo is one of the most balanced fighting games available. The gap between the best and worst characters isn't large, but it's there.

Virtua Fighter is back. That might not seem like a big deal on the surface, but there’s an important legacy here. This series pioneered 3D visuals – not just in the fighting game genre, but for video games as a whole – and is the grandfather of every 3D fighting game that has come since.

Maybe R.E.V.O. is trying to make up for lost time.

Virtua Fighter set out to achieve the impossible—revolutionizing the fighting game genre forever. By introducing 3D movement and realistic combat mechanics, AM2's ambitious project pushed the boundaries of what was possible in gaming.
