Joining the march of PS3-exclusives gone rogue is Sega’s Virtua Fighter 5, which will be making its way to Xbox 360 as well. A PlayStation-exclusive franchise in the past generation, Virtua Fighter 5 has gone multiplatform, though it’s still a (short) timed-exclusive for the PS3: it will be released for the Sony console on February 20, whereas the Xbox 360 version will launch in March 2007.
“Bringing Virtua Fighter 5 to the Xbox 360 offers us a platform with power to handle the astonishing visuals, the complex and varied fighting styles of all the customizable characters and will undoubtedly put Virtua Fighter™ 5 into the hands of a gaming audience craving for a highly polished and credible fighting game,” said Mat Woodley, Creative Director at Sega Europe.
Virtua Fighter 5 is the latest game to betray the PS3, followed by Koei’s BladeStorm and Fatal Inertia. There have also been rumors that Metal Gear Solid 4, one of the major PS3-exclusives, will be making its way to the Xbox 360, though it was denied by Konami.
