  While Dead or Alive may not always have gotten the credit it deserved, we can see why this franchise is still very much alive over two decades after the first game was released. Many fighting games often focus on a multiplayer experience, while this ‘sixth’ iteration of the Dead or Alive series puts a heavy focus on single player fun with its story and the DOA Quest mode. Of course, if you still prefer to battle it out with other players, there are sufficient online options. Completionists will also love the many costumes you’re able to collect.

  Overall, DOA6 is a nice package. While the grind for the costumes is real, the quest modes is a great way to learn more about all the characters in the game, and while the online mode is sparse for now, the support for this game will come in due time. Aside from all of that, the most important thing is the fighting mechanics and DOA6 delivers in that aspect. This is a great fighting game for both beginners and advanced players. The ins and outs take some getting used to, but once you do, you feel the satisfaction of pulling off that amazing counter and finishing up with a devastating combo, and end the end, that’s all that matters. Fighting game fans will have a great time here.
