E3 2012 | Dead or Alive 5 Is Alive, Kicking and Punching

DOA fans rejoice at the news that Techmo is finally revisiting the popular fighting series, Dead or Alive. The newest title, Dead or Alive 5, promises all the passion that the series is known for as well as new gameplay and styles that are sure to pull in new players to the series. Techmo has released several pieces of reveal content showing off the new game’s graphics and gameplay. So, how is the game? Let’s take a short look.

The first thing I noticed with what the game has to offer is that new characters from the popular Virtua Fighters series have been inserted into this new fighter. Besides the featured guests, the game also has a new look and feel. The core gameplay looks to be in tact, but the updated feel gives a conservative feeling of progression. The new fighting title is currently being developed by Team Ninja and will launch on the PS3 and Xbox 360 on September 25, 2012. Catch a cool video of the game below.
