According to Kotaku.com many retailers have changed the due date for the upcoming game Virtua Fighter 5 for the Xbox 360 to the fall possibly.
Sega had no comment on the situation.

Plus celebrate Sonic’s 30th anniversary with a trio of titles: Sonic Mania, Team Sonic Racing and Sonic Forces.
Although fighting games are entering a new Golden Age, there's a number of franchises that deserve to be brought back.
I think licensing is one of the major reasons Fight for NY hasn't been ported, since its original release. Def Jam had a poll on their Twitter a year or two ago asking if people would be interested in a new entry to the series. A surprise next gen release with AKI developing it would be cool
Definitely yes to Weaponlord, Bloody Roar, Rival Schools, Power Stone, Bushido Blade, Darkstalkers, and the Def Jam games. I was really big into fighting games when I was younger. I would Like Primal Rage, B.A,T., and Eternal Champions to come back as well.
It’s been a while since we got a new Virtua Fighter game. What’s going with the series?
Ask Sega. All of Yu's games haven't gotten updates. And they aren't helping to bring Shenmue 3 to console and PC. Spent most of their time on Sonic and Yakuza. Like they forgot the man that got them started. He was the "Miyamoto of Sega." Too many hits under hits belt.
VF is one of the best if not the best, technical fighters around based on real fighting styles. No supers, no finishers,etc. I wish there wasn't any juggling. It was fun as a videogame mechanic but I would like full realism for a fighting game. It's like adding nos to Gran Turismo. Would be fun. Just doesn't fit the realism Kaz wants in his game of winning through skill and perseverance.
I'm hoping for a new Sega surge of games in and out of VR and more respect for Yu and his properties. It's just not the same Sega I grew up with though.
As a side thing, Sega could have even updated Last Bronx to a modern fighter like Namco did with Soul Blade to Soul Calibur.

But they've sat on that too.
Loved me some VF wish they would update the game i still remember my first Jeffery power bomb on VF 1.
this game sucks I PLAYED IT today on my ps3 and I HATED it I dont like the controls at all
The game looks good on the PS3 but shame it has no online and it was also confirmed the 360 version would not either...Now obviously there shouldnt be a problem porting the game over so am assuming the game has a timed exclusiveness meaning that it the 6month time frame for exclusives would be about right if it comes out in Autumn.
Which could mean it might as well be VF6 with online then?
I doubt it will have online play, sega said themselves that the game needs perfect timing and Online play will ruin the experience. I think sega are having problems with the port because graphically at the moment the game is really inferior compared to the PS3 version but what do you expect its a 360 at the end of the day.
I would like to hope it is bc of the addition of online, but online was shot down as far as I remember. Most likely it is just for time exclusive reasons.
Maybe they don't want to put a lot of money into a port so they need to strech the resources. It's fair to say fighting games have lost the appeal to most gamers :( a sad but true thought.
Or yeah maybe they figured out how to put online in the title, but I'm thinking not seeing that it was already confirmed by Sega that it's an offline game.... who knows
