Cyber Troopers Virtual-On Force (Arcade)

This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

Cyber Troopers Virtual-On Force continues the 3D mech action fighting, but this time you're fighting in pairs.

An Japan-only home port was released over nine years later on the Xbox 360, which later appeared in a Japan-only PS4 compilation, also nine years later. So, if you haven't noticed, this game never left Japan.

Unused Virtuaroid#

Non-playable Virtuaroid#

A Virtualoid named Hatter was designed to serve as the tutorial guide and support character, but players are never able to use it.

Unused Virtuaroid Names#

The following list contains unused strings for Virtuaroid names found in the ROM.

Virtualoids Unable to Create Cards#

The game includes unused Virtuaroids and Virtuaroids used after transformation; however, if you select these Virtuaroids to create a card, the card will fail the validity check, and the card data will be altered so that it cannot be read.

Since no images are available for the following Commander Virtuaroids, the screen will display the same image as for standard Virtuaroids.

VR Name	Notes	Image
MBV-747T/c TEMJIN 747T/c	Commander Virtuaroid
TF-14 M+ Fei-Yen with Cinderella Heart+	Commander Virtuaroid
UNKNOWN GUARAYAKHA	A Virtuaroid designated as Guarayakha transformation form. Although it is called a jaguarundi, the Virtuaroid introduction displays Guarayakha. In addition, the model number field will display “UNKNOWN.”
RVR-24-C-HC APHARMD J type C	Virtuaroid for Hatter
RVR-27-M/c APHARMD J type M/c	Commander Virtuaroid
RVR-77-X/c APHARMD T type X/c	Commander Virtuaroid It turns out that the 3D model is switching correctly, but it seems that the weapons and appearance haven't been set.

Unused Virtuaroid Color#

There are multiple colors in the game, and while players were originally supposed to obtain them by crafting cards, many colors have never actually been obtained by anyone because their drop rates are extremely low or have not been set at all.

There are colors reserved for developers, and these colors are not included in the drop rates.
The internal names for these colors are RC_XXX (where X is the developer's name).

To do: If a color you claim to have obtained appears on the list, please remove it.
