A simply amazing fighting game that gets everything right. No two characters play alike, meaning you can really dive deep into learning each and every one of them by planning your strategy and exploring the combo potential of your favorite characters. The game has a great in depth tutorial that helps new players really understand the game beyond a beginner level, and coupling that with combo challenges and the command training, this game really wants to set you up for success with it and make sure you understand the systems and mechanics of what is going on.
The combat is deep yet accessible, and I think the Dead or Alive series has done that masterfully every game, with this game being no exception. There is something there for fighting game aficionados and newcomers alike, and years later, I still find myself figuring out little nuances about the game I hadn't noticed before!

Truth be told this is one of the best fighting games to come out this generation besides mortal kombat. The characters are beautiful as always but this time around it comes with a much more in depth fighting style plus fully destructible arenas to keep the action over the top. Plus this entry has alot more content than the previous entries. And from all these extras there is plenty of fun to be had whether you are a hardcore fighter or just a causal player so dig on in. Don't miss out on the fun!

Un gioco di combattimento che aggiunge quel pepe in più con la sua spiccata provocazione delle combattenti, fantastica l’aggiunta del **** Honoka, davvero ben fatta, trama non complessa che non si prende sul serio, pecca enorme la marea di dlc per costumi e accessori che portano il prezzo del gioco a una spesa esagerata

Doa 5 is fun and have a lot of characters and sceneries with good design,
good speed sensation in the battle, good difficult , but Doa 5 was not perfect because it contained
a glitch , that glitch erased my save.
And other problems like the excessive dlc also offended me the relase of DOA5:LR and DOA5:ULTIMATE.

Missing characters, Missing any acknowledgement to the past 7 years of inventive ideas in Fighting Games, Missing any redeeming qualities as a fighter with dozens of bugs, issues, and missing features. Everything about this game defies the previous Dead or Alive games, never mind **** on what is widely regarded as the pinnacle of 3D fighting games, Dead or Alive 4. Dead or Alive 4 paved the way for almost every fighting game release in the past 7 years. Fighting games have adopted one thing or another from Dead or Alive 4 and incorporated them into their own design, be it the "bounce" combo mechanic, Online ranked lobbies and network inspiration, or even Motion Blur as a detail enhancing visual feature. In one way or another, nearly every fighting game made in the past 7 years has taken notes from Dead or Alive 4 in hopes to compete. Dead or Alive 5 doesn't aim to be better than, or even as good as Dead or Alive 4. It lacks features from previous DOA games, it lacks network capabilities from previous DOA games, it lacks balance from previous DOA games, it simplifies combat immensely by **** the **** out of Counter-Holds making them relatively useless, thereby ruining the "Triangle System" brand of combat that DOA is famous for. It's buggy, rushed, highly in favor to the over-sexualization of it's female characters (even more-so than previous DOA games) so much as to be called misandry. Dead or Alive 5 is the biggest fighting game scandal in the history of fighting video games. Please understand that the Team Ninja that made the previous four DOA games no longer exists. In 2008, Tomonobu Itagaki and over 36 key members of Team Ninja quit and sued Tecmo for business malpractice. leaving Tecmo's Team Ninja with a shell of what once was a development studio. The publicized departure of Itagaki and around 40 people caused a stir up that dissuaded prospective engineers, programmers, animators, artists, and designers from choosing to work for Tecmo/TeamNinja, and because of that - they could only end up hiring people who were not entirely capable. This game is as much of a **** to the Dead or Alive series and fighting games as a whole as Ninja Gaiden 3 was to the Ninja Gaiden series and action-adventure hack-n-slash games. Anyone who praises this game either doesn't play fighting games or is simply lying through their teeth. This is one of the cheapest Lie Detectors available, while still being the most expensive Fighting Game without content.
