With the largest roster of fighters in any DOA game to date, DEAD OR ALIVE Last Round includes new characters “The Regeneration of Brutality – Raidou”, a newly revived cybernetic version of the DEAD OR ALIVE boss character, and “Super Secret Fighter Chick – Honoka” the Japanese schoolgirl. Character customization options get even deeper, as DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round offers over 400 open and unlockable costumes, and the brand new hairstyle and accessory options will give nearly endless possibilities to adorn the fighters for any occasion. Players can bring their run of rosters, costumes and accessories from DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Ultimate, as previously purchased DLC content will be transferable from last gen consoles to the PS4 and Xbox One (PS3 to PS4, Xbox 360 to Xbox One).

I've been an avid gamer since I stumbled upon ZORK running in my local Radio Shack in 1980. Ten years later I was working for Sierra Online. Since then I've owned nearly every game system and most of the games to go with them. Not sure if 40+ years of gaming qualifies me to write reviews, but I do it anyway.
