Valentine’s Day costumes for Dead or Alive 5 Last Round (DOA5LR) has been released 4 days ahead of schedule and ahead of Valentine’s Day itself. It makes more sense to release this costume set before the actual day then after as originally planned.<\/p>\n

[Updated 13 Feb]<\/strong> For some reasons, the PS4 version for US and Europe will only be released on the original date: 16th February.<\/p>\n

This costume set is actually a swimsuit pack in disguise, as the Japanese name is called “Sweet Sexy Costumes”<\/strong>. The thing is, the girls are actually wearing a bikini underneath a maid apron. And for the first time in a long time, the guys are getting some swimwear. The last time male characters get anything close is in 2013 with the Fighter Pack.<\/p>\n

The “disguise” part is that costumes of the female characters are destructible. To be specific, it is actually the maid apron that is breakable. After the apron is destroyed with a Power Blow or Critical Burst, the girls are left with the bikini, looking just like a usual swimsuit costume. Alpha-152 and male characters’ costumes are not destructible.<\/p>\n

This is the third set of costumes included in Season Pass 3<\/a>. The first set is Design Award 2015 Costumes<\/a> and the second one is Tatsunoko Pro Costumes<\/a> released last month.<\/p>\n

This pack is available for all 34 characters for PS4\/\u2009Xbox One\/\u2009PC (Steam). Individual costume is priced at US$2.99 (\u00a5308) for breakable costumes (female) and US$1.99 (\u00a5206) for non-breakable ones (male & Alpha-152). The bundle set of all 34 costumes is US$23.99 (\u00a52592). Again, PC version is only sold in a pack and the destructible feature is not available.<\/p>\n

Next month DLC is a 30-costume collaboration pack. The release date has also been brought forward to 18th March instead of 22nd March.<\/del> The actual content is currently unknown but most probably are costumes from Samurai Warriors. The new character Naotora Ii<\/a> and her debut costumes will also be released at the same time. A new stage is also expected.<\/p>\n

[Updated 25 Feb]<\/strong> The next costume pack is confirmed to be Samurai Warriors costumes but the release date is pushed further to 29th March<\/strong>. New character Naotora Ii, her debut costumes and the new stage will be released on 17th March<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
