When you first put in the disc, you can’t play until your system downloads “DOA5 Core Fighters”, a sort of demo of DOA 5 with only a few fighters to use. You see, the disc does not contain anything other than security codes for your system and some DLC codes that auto-download. This time however, there isn’t really that much to get excited about, and has left me questioning this release.įirst off, if you have the disc version of this game (like I have), you will have to endure a lengthy install process.
After all, DOA 5 Plus for the Vita and DOA 5 Ultimate for the Xbox 360 and PS3 really expanded over the original. At the least, it is nice to see publishers experimenting with new ways to get their games out there.When it was announced that Dead Or Alive 5 was coming to next gen platforms, I expected a huge change from the previously released titles. It’s not a bad game by any stretch, but even as a free-to-play title, it’s perhaps not what I want to be splitting into my time with Injustice. The trial periods for paid fighters sounds like a particular nice foot forward. I don’t know if this is exactly what will bring more people into DOA 5, but it is a nice effort on Tecmo’s part to offer a substantial portion for free. Additional modes and fighters would stay behind a pay wall, but Tecmo Koei will be offering trial periods for all purchasable fighters.Ĭurrently this project is slated for a PS3 release, but Tecmo is in talks with Microsoft about getting it on Xbox 360. Online play will be enabled for the basic version, as well as the offline training and tutorial modes. The set up would go a little something like this: series staples Ryu, Hayate, Kasumi, and Ayane will all be available in the base game, with all the other fighters available as AI opponents. It sold well enough at least, but Team Ninja plans to breathe new life into the game by making Dead or Alive 5: Ultimate a free-to-play title. Though it is a perfectly functional and fun fighting game, Dead or Alive 5 didn’t exactly set the fighting game scene ablaze. PS3 inbound with talks of a 360 version ongoing
