    Great game, but a bit lacking in terms of fanservice compared to previous entries. Can't wait for Dead or Alive Extreme 4 with VR on PC for the obvious mods everyone should be using. Not sure why people even care about the expensive costumes, it's not even required to play and you get an initial roster of over twenty characters to play with. Only drawback is the unpredictable AI.

Not sure why people even care about the expensive costumes, it's not even required to play and you get an initial roster of over twenty characters to play with. Only drawback is the unpredictable AI. Sometimes at max difficulty, the AI does nothing and will get destroyed by simply mashing a single button and at other times, low difficulty AI will counter most of your attacks and be on steroids. A bit too random if you ask me. Oh yeah, and the awful costume unlocking, but you can use Cheat Engine or mods to remedy that lol… Expand

    I swear if they didn't release a free to play version, I would have never played it based on the reviews. Even though DOA5 was good, with the direction their dlc was headed I was almost convinced by reviews about this game. It's game play is amazing, some of the best and most frustrating at times fighting I've played in a while. Graphics are up there as well.

One thing I don't like at all, is they locked best girl Momiji and a few others behind pay walls. Smh. Story isn't so great, but if you've played DOA a while now, thats pretty much expected. Its all about the fighting, online, offline, time attack, arcade. If you were looking for a game to spank it to, this ones gonna cost you a fortunate, and you be better off visiting a free site. I mainly just wanted to up rank this a bit.… Expand

    An excellent fighting game, it has a very pleasant and fast combat system, the characters have an interesting story, in the game there are amazing characters who have joined the series, such as Tamaki from Dead or Alive venus vacation, I hope that in the future the game will be developed further and will add other characters from the entire series of games.

    O coisa maravilhosa!
    Esse é um dos melhores dead or alive, ficando atrás do 5 por falta de inovações, mas em questão de gráficos ele da uma surra kkk

    This game is the best! Really. I know what I am talking about, I use to run Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct websites back in the 90s.

I know what I am talking about, I use to run Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct websites back in the 90s. This game is being attacked by a certain group of SJWs that think the game is too revealing and exploitative of women. The head developer put his foot down in response to requested changed and I applaud his stance and conviction and have to give the game a perfect 10 because of his strength to not let them alter his game. KEEP IT UP! I bought this game at full price just to support that kind of development! It's your product and someone that is not even going to buy the game in question should have 0 say in how it is created.... And even without this going on the game is easily a 9.5/10 but dealing with this attack shoots the score above and beyond for staying true to the fans! I had to come here and leave this review because I heard SJWs were trying to tank the reviews.... sad and pathetic.… Expand

    DOA 6 brings back the well balanced fighting mechanics we've been playing for years, with some cool enhancements to keep it fresh.

    DOA is back ! Game is great ! The ultimate ability really ads a new layer of depth, gameplay is great and leave space for skill plays. The new quest mode is a real treat where you can learn and have fun at the same time. Outfits are unlockables which is like the old days.

    +Fun game, looks great.
    +More focus on the neutral game.
    +Plenty of **** n' ass for us men of culture.

    -No tag battle, no lobbies at launch.
    -Game is hefty expensive and Season Pass is a freaking joke. Luckily you can buy chars individually.
    -Story mode is whateva. Fighting game story modes are dead.

    One of the best fighting games out there. The game is not "censored" and the DLC when actually examined is a good deal if you plan on getting all of the items. When lobbies are patched in this game will be a strong 90-95.

    A very well done fighting game, plagued with early lauch issues.
    Developers keep patching up the game two to three times a month, so it can be expected said issues are gone soon.

    Free version with 4 characters and many missions. Bought the game. Awesome gameplay and character and comands/moves just like every DOA games. Easy to play after playing other titles, I love it being consistent to the franchise itself.

    I have not played the previous parts, and I can not compare. I really liked this game: a variety of heroes and fighting styles. The fights are made very realistic. The most voluminous training system I've ever seen. Beautiful girls ^^

    Dead or Alive 6 is a perfect addition to the 3D roster of fighters. Next to Tekken and Soul Calibur you now have three separate identities in the FGC that feel like complete tournament level fighting games. This is the first time DOA6 has competed like that and is showing up at big tournaments for the first time at CEO.

    It's great. It's the best game I've ever seen. The picture is exquisite, the movement is smooth, and the design is exquisite.

    An easy to pick up fighting game whose creators know exactly what their audience wants. At the same time, it will hardly surprise long-time fans.

    It looks better than its predecessor, but content-wise its rather stingy and the story needs work, dampening excitement for this title.

    Dead or Alive 6 is a decent fighting game. Although the DLC pricing model is annoyingly expensive, the existing content is enough to make you ignore it and devote yourself to its high-quality gameplay. As soon as lobbies are added, it would be a very good thing for all the fighters out there.
