Tecmo Koei is working on the latest entry in its fighting game series Dead or Alive, DoA 5. This latest batch of screenshots shows Hitomi and Ayane duking it out.
Fans of the series will notice that Ayane’s character design is tweaked.
Dead or Alive 5, the first developed without DoA creator Tomonobu Itagaki, is slated for a 2012 release on the Xbox 360 and PS3.

Friday, December 9, 2011 at 11:10 AMsorry. Ayane’s boobs are NOT G cups. typo.
For the record though, I’m not one of these people who ever argued against the shameless fanservice of the DOA series because at its core it was still a really solid fighter, but I’m still kinda releived to see them taking a more modest approach with the new game.

Friday, December 9, 2011 at 8:16 PMActually I noticed that too. At first I thought, what’s the tweak and then I realised XD
Dimensions was really good and filled in the plot holes of the story as well as telling you who won each tournament. (Excluding the first one of course). 5 looks good so far.
