Dead or Alive 6 will be better optimized on the PC than Dead or Alive 5

In an interview with professional player Kayane, Yohei Shimbori, producer on Dead or Alive 6, has revealed some new details about the PC version. Dead or Alive 6 is coming to the PC alongside its console version and according to its producer, the team had a PC version in mind from the get-go.

When asked about the PC version of Dead or Alive 6, Yohei Shimbori said that the team had a PC version in mind from the beginning and as such it’ll be better optimized from the get-go.?

Not only that, but it appears that Dead or Alive 5 sold quite well on the PC.

“It actually sold pretty well on PC ! The times seem to be changing, to the point it’s something fighting games developers can’t ignore anymore.”

Last but not least, Shimbori claimed that there wasn’t any beta for Dead or Alive 6 on the PC because gamers would have access to the files and could potentially crack the game.

“Well the problem was that if the beta had been out on PC, people could’ve easily accessed the files and cracked the code, so that’s why we didn’t do it.”

Dead or Alive 6 releases on March 1st!

  1. He walks back on that in the interview right at the end:

    Y. S. : Thank you ! So yeah, there was a clear misunderstanding about any form of censorship or whatnot. It was also mentionned that Sony imposed some form of censorship on the PS4 version, which is totally untrue. All versions will be the same and it was a huge misunderstanding.

    Coming back to the sexyness of the game, it’s on the same level as DOA 5, and there are some adjustments possible. We’ll take the community’s feedback to patch the game and making it more or less… Excessive, if need be. Like the extent of the deterioration of the clothes, that we can adjust fairly easily. What I’m saying is that we didn’t censor ourselves and stuck to DOA 5’s level, but the door’s open to adjustments if the community dislikes something. Please trust us !

    It’s hard to tell what they’ll do since Shimbori has been contradicting himself so much, so remain cautious.

  2. DoA 5 was a shitshow on PC. It required 3rd party hacked DLLs just to support for example 1440p resolution. The developers did the absolute minimum possible to get it running and then concentrated on dumping costume DLCs on Steam.

    There’s a very good fighting game under all the generic template big t*ts and a*s female characters fan service crap.

  3. Too bad this game is gonna sell like a*s on every platform because general interest in this series is at an all time low, even the fans don’t seem that interested in the game after Team Ninja pulled that PR s*it of wanting to pander to esports and mainstream, so they were gonna cut back the T&As.

    And even after they came crawling back like ‘lol, joking there’s totally jiggly ti**ies’ when they weren’t gaining any traction whatsorvrr, a big portion of the fans still doesn’t want anything to do with this game.

  4. The thing is, if you don’t do us a favour and work with us during the beta phase, then you’re frankly going to suck at delivering a polished product. it has become evident over the past decade, that AAA companies not holding a beta, end up giving us shortchanged experiences or games lacking polish and balance changes.

    Stop worrying about god damn piracy and start worrying about a bad port job, that will end up crippling you in the long-run, far more than piracy every will.

  5. I cant play those game without being distracted :p
    Im married and got a kid and seeing kasumi in a schoolgirl uniform still makes me weak :p

  6. Good luck making games for sarkeesian. See how much your games are going to sell. Developers need a good tight slap to wake up if they believe on words said by people who donyd gane

  7. “Next game is gonna be more optimized than the previous sh**ty port we sold you guys, we swear”

    I’ll take “B*llshit a PC player has never heard before” for $200 Alex !

  8. Lol, everybody knows the reason these betas don’t come out to PC. But it’s uncommon to see a developer be so honest about it.
