Dead or Alive 5

[SolxBaiken]

ugh, Ugh, UGH!!! Momiji is disappointing [to me]. She's essentially just a Hayabusa & Kasumi hybrid :\ Oh but KyoKaga you can stop complaining now, they're adding Leon lol (now to wait for Ein's return...)

[Kyosuke Kagami]

Why do you always manage to make me happy, JAM?

[Vulcan422]

Fuck yeah Leon. Now I actually have a reason to get back into this game.

All they have to do is re-add Tengu and/or put in character themes and it'll be an instant pre-order should it turn out to be retail.

EDIT: HOLY FUCK THEY'RE ADDING CHARACTER BGM BACK

5U will have all the features of 5+ (with the exception -I hope and would think- of the touch fighting) so yes, music select and character themes are in!

The game will be hitting NA and EU this "Fall" and is apparently being offered at both retail and for download. It seems unlikely this will be a patch a la AE, but c'est la vie (long as it launches at like $29~39.99)

[Hecatom]

Since they are adding Leon, i really, really, really, really, really, really hope that they add Ein back :/

[Kyosuke Kagami]

Kalimán is back, bitches

[MikelAL93]

Guess who will be in DOA5U?

You guessed it! Ein will be back for the new version of DOA5, along with Jacky Bryant from Virtua Fighter.

[Hecatom]

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!

WHERE MAH AOI BES )<

WHERE MAH AOI BES )<

Maybe they'll announce Tengu and Aoi together in a while?

[SolxBaiken]

It was only a matter of time for Ein to come [farewell Hitomi mains who aren't women trying to empower themselves or men with stiffies] but if Jacky is as good as his VF5FS ver, prepare to see alot more VF in tournaments [in America] lol.

Honestly still not sure how much I like the crossover [as I want people to play VF itself and Sarah few button changes make her really awkward to switch between] but hopefully this will at least keep thee series in the broader audience's mind.

[MikelAL93]

Information about both Jacky and Ein are now available on Famitsu's website.

[SolxBaiken]

Eh, not much info...

But yay screens~

EDIT: Also please, PLEASE let Jacky's theme be City from VF5 (Vanilla), Ein's theme is already a lock :3

I want Aoi and Wolf in this game SO badly.

Oh and Tengu.

And the ability to rewind replays from previous games so I can make it look like characters are doing inappropriate things..

[Hecatom]

Hitomi with a pony tail

[TekkamanArk]

Glad to see Ein and Jacky (one of my fave VF characters to use). I hope Jacky's theme is either his VF5FS theme, or a remix of his VF4 theme.

[SolxBaiken]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!

Bryant Double Flip Kick is MAD hype lol I don't like Jacky in VF but if I pick up Sarah in DoA (learn to deal with those changed commands .v.) I'd definitely would run this team XD Also most hype Critical Blow!?

Also funny that they don't directly translate Ein's "Good vibration" line any more

OH and new mountain stage is pretty hype too, probably endless fall like the ice one.

[Kyosuke Kagami]

Vigaku = Hype song

[Vulcan422]

"I DONE HANDCUFFED LIGHTNING!"

So hype for Ein and Jacky right now.

[Hecatom]

Kasumi and Ayane. Gogogogo.

[Kyosuke Kagami]

Until now I realized the waterfall stage is the same one from DOA3.

[Hecatom]

Team O won.

I voted team D Q_Q

[Devdan]

Of course Team O won, they're dressed like AKB48. *vomit*

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate will be getting a free-to-play model released on Japanese PSN, where you have access to all modes, costumes, and stages (barring the DLC ones, and story mode), and 4 characters (you have to buy the rest for $4 per character).

What is actually interesting news is the character select screen:

If you notice the character select, then you'll see Momiji, Jacky, and Ein (who is wearing shades in his character icon). There are 2 secret slots, one of which would belong to Leon. The other would belong to an as-of-yet-unnamed female fighter. It could be a VF character, or it's entirely possible that it is a new original character like Momiji. The reason I would believe that it's a female is the costume pack that mentions 14 females, but there are 13 besides Alpha-152, and I doubt they'd give her costume.

But, the basic news here is that there are 2 blank slots aside from Momiji, Jacky, and Ein, with one being Leon, and the other being left to reveal.
