Story:
All of the sought after invitations
for the Fifth World Fighting Tournament have been sent and now the 17 best
fighters in the world begin their final phases of preparation. They must learn
from their prior mistakes and perfect every aspect of their mind, body, and soul
- for there is no room for mistakes in this competition. Little do they know
that J6, the organization funding the tournament, has sinister ulterior motives
for the contest and the company's top secret Dural program is already well
underway. In the organization's quest for world domination, the scientists at J6
are creating the ultimate fighting machine with human features. Their first
model was defeated in the Fourth World Fighting Tournament, which drove them to
kidnap Vanessa. She was able to escape with the help of an insider, but not
before they captured her combat data and transferred it to the new advanced
Dural model named V-Dural. J6 is determined
to find out who the inside traitor is that released Vanessa and more
importantly, if V-Dural is indeed ready to defeat the world's best fighters. The
Fifth World Fighting Tournament will reveal both - let it begin.

Closing Comment:
I do hope VF5 R finds it's way to consoles eventually, since playing it
at an arcade is pretty much hopeless. Good thing I'm not a huge
Virtua Fighter fan... I'd be one pissed off Virtua Fighter fan right about now. C'mon Sega, there are
VF fans in the states you know.
