Where some combating games allow us to create ridiculous characters with customized costumes (taking a look at you, Tekken 7 and Soulcalibur VII), Dead Or Alive 6 boldly makes its pugilists look ludicrous by default. Team Ninja’s newest face-puncher is out now, launched this morning, and is the primary within the sequence to launch for PC on the identical day as its console counterparts.
“That’s good and all, Alice,” you’re at present considering, “but when are you going to talk about the jiggling? Tell us about the jiggling. Say something sarky about the jiggling.”
I’m sorry, what jiggling? You’ll have to clarify it to me.
Dead Or Alive 6, then, is a game about punching your pal within the face till they fall over. This might contain punching your pal till they smash by layers of the extent, driving a a pteranodon because it picks your pal up, or getting a tyrannosaurus rex to chew ’em out (one degree seems to be set in Jurassic Park?). I’m very a lot into that form of foolishness.
You can see a few of it within the launch trailer, which seems to star one of Japan’s Microsoft Windows mascots.
Dead Or Alive 6 is out now on Steam, with a small launch low cost bringing it to £49.49/€62.99/$53.99. Oof that Euro pricing is harsh. You can even spend ha ha WHAT £73.99/€89.99/$92.99 on the Season Pass 1 for brand spanking new costumes and characters, which doesn’t even essentially cowl all DLC launched over its March-June run. And it’s doubtless extra will observe, given the “1” within the identify and the truth that DOA5’s DLC got here to whole £997.09.
Team Ninja’s crossover fightfest Dissidia Final Fantasy NT is also coming to PC this month.
