Overview
- NVIDIA and SEGA announced at an Akihabara event that VIRTUA FIGHTER CROSSROADS and future SEGA games will support the RTX Spark platform.
- The announcement took place on July 15, 2026, when executives from both companies publicly celebrated their 30-year collaboration in Tokyo.
- RTX Spark is a GB10-class AI system-on-chip designed for slim Windows laptops and compact desktops and is positioned to power agentic AI PC experiences.
- Analysts say SEGA titles on RTX Spark are likely to be optimized with ray tracing, DLSS upscaling and may be compiled natively for Windows on Arm because the chip’s unified memory and limited bandwidth create performance tradeoffs.
- The event revived a long-running tie between the companies, recalling SEGA’s mid-1990s $5 million investment that executives credit with helping NVIDIA survive and later build its modern GPU business.
