Watch On
Team Ninja is developing a new Dead or Alive fighting game as the series celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, the studio announced today during a Sony State of Play broadcast.
Unless the developer is planning to pull a reset of some sort, this entry will be Dead or Alive 7, following the release of DOA6 in 2019. While 2026 marks the fighting game series’ 30th anniversary, it seems like DOA7 is still a ways off. To fill the gap, a new version of DOA6, Last Round, is out on June 26, incorporating the original release’s DLC and a new photo mode. It’ll be getting further character releases as DLC.
