videos earlier this year we were invited
by Co a tecmo + 1 PR to go play the new
Dead or Alive 6 as well as interview the
games director and producer
yo Haitian buddy this list is a handful
of things we uncovered during our time
with the game number 10 new wardrobe it
just wouldn’t be a Dead or Alive game
without a cornucopia of clothing options
most of the cast have gone through
costume changes such as iron with her
badass outfit from Ninja Gaiden Sigma
and bass Armstrong wearing well
something only bass would wear some
costumes even come with a few color
variations but suppose you want to give
your costumes your own personal Flair
maybe change your character’s hairstyle
or add a couple accessories introducing
do a central a feature where you can
customize different outfits to your
liking as well as spending in-game
currency to unlock additional costumes
now you’re fighting with style number 9
speaking of fighting dead or alive six
has a neat little touch to its fights as
characters exchange powerful blows
they’ll take cosmetic damages this was a
concept explored in dead or alive 5 but
DOA six is adding a few more touches not
only will clothes rip and tear but
accessories can break off hair can come
undone and characters will get bruised
and a little bloody just a little we
realize most fighting games have already
implemented this feature however Dead or
Alive 6 manages to show the intensity of
a fight without being too extreme or
number 8 it’s still sexy as hell I
finally get to fight with mr. bass go
ahead fade him when Dead or Alive 6 was
revealed at e3 2018 games critics and
pundits were quick to point out the
absence of scanty outfits
although did anyone really believe the
franchise would go cold turkey from its
provocative nature this is dead or alive
we’re talking about of course DOA 6 was
going to retain that attitude
this isn’t hallmark admittingly it’s not
showing as much skin as some of its
other titles but fans can rest assured
that do a sexy nature isn’t going away
we may crack jokes at it sex appeal
every now and again yet you wouldn’t
want d away any other way number 7
look guys we get fighting games can have
a pretty steep learning curve especially
when it comes to a franchise as complex
as Dead or Alive
don’t let that steer you away from dead
or alive 6 though as the game offers
plenty of options to hone your skills
loading screens will display tips about
the games mechanics fighters and stages
the game will also offer players
tutorials on character specific combos
and the story mode gives you plenty of
opportunities to tinker with different
fighters without stressing over wins and
losses there’s also a new mode that
tests your abilities and using certain
fighters but we’ll get to that in a bit
overall Dead or Alive 6 is providing a
sizeable buffet of lessons for players
old and new to try out remember kids the
number six all new stages
during our time with the game we got to
play on every single stage and we have
quite a bit to go over with the
exception of stages like the muscle and
Xero every stage in Dead or Alive 6 is
completely new and they’re pretty big
some of the stage hazards get pretty
freakin insane
too seriously even though we’re playing
Dead or Alive a series known for being
ridiculous in its action we still
weren’t expecting to see a freaking
kraken or a pterodactyl from the looks
of it fights are going to be just as
thrilling as they’ve ever been number 5
no guest characters it may not be a
tradition of the franchise but like most
fighting games dead or alive has seen
its fair share of guest characters Dead
or Alive dimensions featured Samus and
Ridley from the Metroid games Bungie and
team ninja collaborated on an original
Halo character to put in do a four do a
five on the other hand featured
characters from Virtua Fighter samurai
warriors King of Fighters and of course
ninja gaiden unfortunately dead or alive
six will not be including any guest
characters at launch we did try prying
mr. sheean body for an answer on
potential DLC alas he could only reply
with no comment let’s keep our fingers
crossed folks 4 super meters for the
first time ever in the franchise
Dead or Alive 6 is changing up the
formula in addition to the traditional
rock-paper-scissors mechanic of previous
titles players will also have to focus
on a meter consisting of two bars with
these you can break out of combos with a
break hold or unleash a devastating
attack called a break blow using the
entire meter will allow you to deliver a
deadly combo known as a fatal rush you
may even get to see a close-up of your
opponent meeting the end of your foot or
fist and the feeling is a host so
number three no current plans for switch
at the moment dead or alive six is only
scheduled to launch across three
platforms Xbox one Playstation 4 and
Windows PC is it just us or does
something feel off here one of the best
platforms to play fighting games on is
all together now the Nintendo switch the
console is booming with successful
fighting games like Smash Bros ultimate
arms Street Fighter and the upcoming
Mortal Kombat 11 so we can’t resist our
craving to see Dead or Alive 6 on our
switches we asked mr. shim Bodie if
there were any plans to bring do a 6 to
the platform
alas he told us that there are currently
none sorry switch owners maybe we’ll see
it come to fruition within the next year
or two hopefully maybe he has also
experience in developing some games on
switch but however in in terms of also
time resources and also some technical
earlier we mentioned a new game mode
that tasks you with character specific
challenges this is called quest mode
which according to mr. Shin Bodi was
made to give players another opportunity
to learn how each character works he
wanted something akin to the tutorial
but one that would be more engaging and
less like homework each mission will
require you to not only win the match
but to do so with a certain percentage
of Health and execute specific moves
that’s just one example of the missions
though and it was incredibly fun to
retry them to go for all three stars now
the only question remaining is just how
hard does this mode get the only five he
actually had with a lot of tutorials
there were some people because it’s part
two it feels like and so if we’re doing
six they want to create it’s like over
in pairs and try out new characters
number one a return to eSports we got to
see more for many remember the good old
days of competitive DOA remember seeing
a manual master Rodriguez kicking so
much ass and do a tournaments well those
days are making a triumphant return
Dead or Alive 6 is bringing the
franchise back on the competitive scene
starting with evo 2019 as if that wasn’t
exciting enough master is serving as the
game’s community manager over the past
year mr. shim Bodie has shown great
optimism in bringing dead or alive back
into eSports with a knowledgeable
skillful DOA expert behind the community
wheel do a 6 looks to have a bright
future in eSports and we’re looking
forward to seeing fans coming up with
