As part of their evergrowing focus on digital distribution, Sega has announced that it will be bringing a collection of Model 2 arcade games to Xbox Live Arcade and PSN in the coming months.

The slate of titles, dubbed the “Model 2 Collection”, includes Virtua Fighter 2, Virtua Striker, Sonic the Fighters, Fighting Vipers and Virtual On.

Word on the street is that these titles will boast improvements like online play and in the case of Sonic the Fighters, extra playable characters. We’ll have to wait and see. I doubt we’ll see Pepsiman in Fighting Vipers, but one can always hope.

Still waiting on Virtua Fighter 6, Sega!

Virtua Fighter 4 was the first game in the series released on a non Sega platform. The game saw a significant update in Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution which Sega would later release at a budget price – unless you lived in a PAL region. This ad is from the Australian release of the game.
