Both Virtua Fighter 5 REVO and the upcoming new Virtua Fighter game were heavily showcased at the event, and the sense of excitement around the series in the fighting game community and beyond has never felt stronger.

Silent Hill 2 composer Akira Yamaoka has announced that the remake's soundtrack will be a "brand-new, reworked" experience.
