New release date: Dead or Alive 6 comes 1st of March, 2019

Originally, Koei Tecmo planned to release Dead or Alive 6 in mid-February. Unfortunately that's changed. As explained on publisher's Twitter account - release has been pushed by two weeks. Specifically till 1st of March, 2019.

"I am truly sorry for the inconvenience caused by the release delay (...)" writes Yohei Shimbori, Director and Producer of Dead or Alive 6 in his message on Twitter. Dead or Alive 6 is expected to be released about two weeks later than originally planned, namely on March 1, 2019. Not a real drama, considering that many other titles have been delayed for months or even years. But Koei Tecmo apologizes for a good two weeks delay. Originally, Dead or Alive 6 was due to be released on February 15th.

The developer justified the delay saying it will be spent on polishing Dead or Alive 6. Although the development of the title is "almost completed", Koei Tecmo wanted to take a little more time on "(...) gameplay, balance and expressivity". Shimbori adds that they want to offer "(...) the best Dead or Alive gaming experience". Apology accepted!

Dead or Alive 6 will be released by Koei Tecmo on 01.03.2019 simultaneously for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Soon the fighting game can also be pre-ordered at Gamesplanet.
