Virtua Fighter 4 is a 3D fighting game developed by Sega AM2, released in arcades in 2001 and later brought to PlayStation 2. It is the fourth main entry in Sega's long-running Virtua Fighter series. The game is particularly notable for its role in establishing internet connectivity as a viable feature in arcade environments. Its online network service, VF.NET, launched in Japan in 2001 and allowed players to track records and compete across connected arcade cabinets. This pioneering approach helped open the market for arcade networking more broadly, influencing the later development of competing infrastructure from other publishers and developers, including Konami's e-Amusement, Taito and Square Enix's NESiCAxLive, and the Sega and Bandai Namco co-operated ALL.Net service. The game's technical and networked innovations left a lasting mark on the arcade industry in Japan.
