Dead or Alive 5 Last Round: Core Fighters Relaunches for Xbox One

Koei Tecmo today announced that gamers interested in Dead or Alive 5 Last Round can now experience it free of charge with the relaunch of Dead or Alive 5 Last Round: Core Fighters on Xbox One. Consisting of four fighters – Ayane, Hayate, Kasumi, and Ryu Hayabusa – as well as nearly every available game mode, Dead or Alive 5 Last Round: Core Fighters is now free-to-download via the Xbox Store.

With 30 additional characters available for purchase individually or in sets, players can pick and choose which characters to add to their rosters. Each character utilizes a unique fighting style with a personality to match, so it is ultimately up to the player to decide who is worthy to join their Core Fighters team. Additionally, costumes purchased from Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate as well as Dead or Alive 5 Last Round on Xbox 360 can be transferred to Core Fighters on Xbox One, and should players decide to upgrade to the full version of the game, all previously-purchased costumes and DLC will be transferrable.

Characters aside, Dead or Alive 5 Last Round: Core Fighters includes many of the same features from the full version of the game. For example, Core Fighters players can compete online against each other as well as against those who own the full game on Xbox One. Story Mode and other features can be accessed for a fee.
