Finally,
I can announce that I’ve been overseeing “World Development” on the epic new #VirtuaFighter , #Crossroads for the past year.
This is my first job, working as a writer in games.
And what a game to start with.
I think you will enjoy it.
And this might surprise some members of the North American VF community.
Joining us as Co-Director of Cinematics is:
Yohei Koike
@YoheiKoike
Yes — that YOHEI.
A core Virtua Fighter fan who has even competed in VF tournaments!
I’m sure it wasn’t easy for him not being able to tell everyone around him.
Thank you, Yohei!
There’s still a lot of work ahead of us, but let’s keep pushing forward together!
As I mentioned at the SHOWCASE, I spent about a year developing the initial setting for VF Crossroads.
I couldn’t have done it without these amazing collaborators:
Asaura-san
@asaura_seizon
Ryoji Takamatsu-san
@raytea
Osamu Shigeki-san
@DYMSlU59KjnSQCC

My heartfelt thanks to all of them.
A Perfect Balance of Technique, Knowledge, and Mind Games—
Coupled with Simple, Intuitive Controls
"I wanted to preserve this idea of being able to pick up and play the game with simple, intuitive controls. So, we kept that.
But we're also polishing it up. I think it will feel like we've started over from scratch."

New Fighter: Cielo
"We defined his origins, his likes and dislikes, and the details of his upbringing. We thought carefully about the environment he grew up in
and how much of this to feature in the game. We discussed this in much detail as a team, and how to best portray this in his design.Take Cielo's outfit and tattoos, for example. Who he is should be reflected in these too."
Art Director

An Omnibus Story Featuring Four Protagonists
"These characters find themselves in Vilasapara and the story follows their individual journeys. They're not always working towards the same goal, but the ways their paths cross and intersect is all part of the gameplay experience. That's part of our unique "Crossroads-style" approach.'"

The Perfect Fusion of Fighting Game and Action-Adventure
"The foundation remains a close-quarters, full-contact fighting game.
Then from there, I wanted to focus even more on realism. That's what shaped the gameplay system this time."

A fictional city in Southeast Asia:
<Vilasapara>
