Following up on my last post, Sega said VF5 Ultimate Showdown was success and surpassed expectations and is selling well and revitalizing the franchise.
So that explains the DLC pack.
Still that surprises the fuck out of me. Game was free on PS+ and has no rollback and shitty netcode and VF has never been popular. Who is buying the game? I mean I'm glad it's selling because VF is my favorite 3d fighter and I'd love for an actual honest to goodness new one, but it's just fucking bizarre. I guess the explosion of the FGC since VF5 has led to a new audience to fall in love with VF5 even if the netcode is shit.
Imagine if they had actually done rollback for this release. Damn. Could've been huge.
