Dead or Alive 6, much like its immediate predecessor, is one part fighting game, one part fashion show, and one part schlocky action movie. Individually, each of the game s widely differing elements might not stand up to scrutiny. After all, DOA 6 isn t the best fighter, doesn t offer the deepest character customization, and doesn t quite reach the Tekken series level of story insanity.
Still, Dead or Alive 6 is a fun and surprisingly strategic PC game that offers enough freshness to warrant playing with its new Break Blow and Break Hold tools. Plus, the game s familiar Triangle System and Danger Zones are highly entertaining, too.Dead or Alive 6 (for PC) Review
