Dead Or Alive 5 In The Works
Less than a year since Team Ninja released Dead or Alive 4 for Xbox 360, the games enigmatic creator, Tomonobu Itagaki, has stated hes already thinking of new ideas for Dead or Alive 5. Speaking at the DOA: 10th Anniversary Festa in Japan, Itagaki - who wore his trademark sunglasses for the entire event - answered questions from fans about his plans for a follow-up to Dead or Alive 4. Although he couldnt reveal any specific details, he told the packed hall he already had a few ideas in his head for a new title. Interestingly nothing was mentioned about Dead or Alive: Code Chronos, which is a prequel to the series featuring Ayane and Kasumi and is also slated for Xbox 360. Even without mentioning a specific console for Dead or Alive 5, its highly likely it will make its way to 360. The DOA series has become a mainstay for Microsofts Xbox, with several versions appearing on both the original console and Xbox 360, joined by Dead or Alive: Xtreme 2 which bounces onto UK 360s on December 8.Source: http://www.ign.com
