Dead or Alive: Dimensions North American release date announced
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
BURLINGAME, Calif. April 13th, 2011 – For the first time on a Nintendo system, get ready for one of the most intense, visually stunning and accessible fighting game franchises ever, as DEAD OR ALIVE® Dimensions, developed by Team NINJA and published by TECMO KOEI America, launches for the Nintendo 3DS™ handheld system on May 24, 2011. Enjoy incredible 3D effects without the need for glasses, battle through rich and varied environments while smashing opponents through walls or crashing through floors, wirelessly set-up matches and compete as one of 25 playable characters.
Offering fast-paced combat, devastating counter attack combinations and interactive environments which can be used to inflict heavy damage on opponents, DEAD OR ALIVE Dimensions is a full-throttle smackdown experience. There is also a special stage for Nintendo fans, which is inspired by Metroid™: Other M where Ridley will wreak havoc on all fighters present. In another unique addition to the gameplay, the Nintendo 3DS Touch Screen will show players the combination moves each fighter can carry out during the game. Learn the controls to perform these powerful moves or tap the Touch Screen to perform them on an opponent for maximum damage.
DEAD OR ALIVE Dimensions retells the saga of the franchise in a never-before seen way, allowing players to discover the secrets behind the ongoing power struggle within the Mugen Tenshin ninja clan and the carefully guarded “Torn Sky Blast” fighting technique. Meanwhile, the evil DOATEC company, host of the DEAD OR ALIVE tournaments, tries to uncover the secrets for perfecting the creation of a “super fighter.” With classic characters like Kasumi, Lei Fang, Tina Armstrong, along with more recent characters such as Kokoro, Eliot and Hitomi amongst the fighters appearing, DEAD OR ALIVE Dimensions will appeal to fans old and new.
