Virtua Fighter Crossroads Bakunawa Killer Character Revealed
During Evo 2026, Sega revealed a new trailer for Virtua Fighter Crossroads, introducing a new playable character called the Bakunawa Killer, who will also be featured in Cielo's story in the game's story mode.
The more they show Virtua Fighter Crossroads, the more I see RGG Studio's storytelling expertise, while somehow retaining the look and feel of the franchise's classic fighting game style.
The game's story mode revolves around four protagonists set in a fictional place called Vilasapara in Southeast Asia. The town, also known as the "Fighting Town," has been hit by a string of attacks targeting local fighters by the Bakunawa Killer. Both Pai and Cielo will be chasing this unknown individual throughout the story mode, and he'll also be playable in the game's versus mode.
Virtua Fighter Crossroads is still a long way off, as it's currently slated for release in 2027, but it seems to be shaping up well every time Sega shows something new.
