During Dead or Alive Festival 2016, July DLC costumes for Dead or Alive 5 Last Round (DOA5LR) was officially announced and the trailer was also shown, which can be viewed above. A new stage will be released at the same time.
[Updated 19 July 2016]
This new pack is a collaboration with Attack on Titan (進撃の巨人), a Japanese Manga series by Hajime Isayama (諫山 創). The title has been adapted into TV Anime as well and it was recently announced that Season 2 will be telecast next year in Japan. A two-part live-action movie was also released last year. Furthermore, Attack on Titan has been made into video games in the past few years, with the latest one being developed by Omega Force (the team behind Samurai Warriors series) and published by Koei Tecmo. The game has already been released in Japan on 18 February this year, with the western release (US and Europe) scheduled for next month (August 2016).
There are costumes for everyone except guest characters Akira, Pai, Sarah, Jacky and Naotora Ii. The release of this pack and the stage also concluded the contents in Season Pass 4. The first pack in Season Pass 4 is Newcomer costumes, second is Gust mashup costumes and the third one is Fairy Tail costumes released last month.
The Attack on Titan costumes are available for 17 female and 13 male characters for PS4/ Xbox One/ PC (Steam). Individual costume is priced at US$2.99 (¥308) and the bundle set of all 30 costumes is US$39.49 (¥4298). All costumes in this pack are also destructible, except for Alpha-152. The stage, due to being a collaboration stage and not an original one, is not a free download and the price to use it is US$4.99 (¥540). As usual, PC version is only sold in pack and the destructible feature is not available. The new stage is also not released for PC.
Next month, Season Pass 5 will be released and includes an exclusive NyoTengu “School Teacher” costume (below left). The first pack from the new season pass is called “Flower Costumes” (below right), which are actually swimsuits for the female characters. How many costumes are in the next pack and the season pass itself are unknown at the moment.
