Koei Tecmo has unveiled a new trailer for Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation PRISM, a romance game spin-off of their popular fighting game franchise.
Launching March 27th on PS5, PS4, and PC, the game will feature a special Asian "global version" with English text support. Players can participate in mini-games, customize character appearances, and soak up the tropical island atmosphere. The developers promise numerous avenues for developing relationships with the heroines and a deeply immersive romantic storyline.
Venus Vacation PRISM represents a departure for Dead or Alive fans, offering a distinct gameplay experience while retaining the series' signature style.
However, even this venture has its limitations, as highlighted by the ongoing battle against fan-created content. Annually, the publisher removes approximately 200-300 doujinshi and 2,000-3,000 images depicting the game's characters.
For the uninitiated, Dead or Alive is a celebrated fighting game series known for its engaging combat and its attractive female characters, often depicted in swimwear during fights. While appreciating fan art, the developers actively combat the creation and distribution of "adult" fan content featuring these characters.
