It seems data mining is all the rage nowadays, with gamers uncovering stuff like hidden DLC characters on the Street Fighter X Tekken disc. This time a few users on the NeoGAF forums have exposed what seems to be the roster for Tecmo Koei’s upcoming fighter, Dead or Alive 5, which looks to feature even more Virtua Fighter characters.
Users have managed to drill down to the files included in the demo of the game, which was part of the Ninja Gaiden 3 Collector’s edition. So if the list is not mistaken, the roster for DOA5 will be:
- Pai *VF*
- Sarah *VF*
- Akira *VF*
- Mila *NEW*
- Rig *NEW*
- Bayman
- Hitomi
- Christie
- Brad Wong
- Lisa
- Eliot
- Ayane
- Leifang
- Hayate
- Kokoro
- Bass
- Leon
- Helena
- Genfu
- Kasumi
- Hayabusa
- Jannlee
- Tina
- Zack
So all the fighters (bar Ein) from previous DOA’s will be in the game, there’s 2 new characters, and we get 3 crossover characters from the Virtua Fighter series. Additionally, it seems each fighter will have 6 costumes. Dead or Alive 5 is shaping up to be a pretty awesome game!
