DEAD OR ALIVE 6 - Free Version (Core Fighters) now available on Steam, PSN & XBL
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
If the season pass without any base character is already a bazillion of dollars, I wonder how much will this version costs to have everything
Can't seems to find on the eshop ... which region is on already? ;D

C-core Values version is here already? And one of my favourites from 5 is free?
Whatever good deed I performed today, it was totally worth it.

Wow, that was fast! I like the idea of Core Fighters if it brings in more players. Release could be tied to Final Round tournament this weekend.
I'm assuming they made a lot on the DOA5 version and want to cash in earlier this time.
Considering how much better DoA 5 U did for them rather than vanilla DoA 5, I get why they are doing it.
I mean - it is understandable that if you bought the game at $60 you wanted all the fighters? So you pay $3-4.99 for a single character, $2-4 for whatever costumes you like and BAM the playerbase increases. I'm happy about this, hopefully a larger community continues to grow.
Oh shit, this is awesome. I couldn't really bring myself to pay for the full version but this'll get me in.
Yeah I just see the full version myself, where's it at for NA PS4?
Wah, they did this for the last game and last Xtreme. This was pretty likely planned from the start.
This releasing only two weeks after the full version is not a good sign, imo
Does this version still have that quest mode thing in it? If so, is it limited in any way?

They want that steady drip of microtransactions as soon as possible. It took 3 versions of DOA5 to get where it ended up. The costumes shall begin to flow like the waters of the great Nile soon enough with the occasional character here or there.
They really weren't lying in that interview. They said the core fighters release would depend on other factors, but I didn't know they literally already had it ready to go.
People had to download characters individually at launch. They probably wanted it ready two weeks ago.
Nah. The system was probably already ready at launch, for the reasons you stated. From a business perspective, you don't offer a free version of a game if people are willing to pay $60 for it. They probably wanted to launch CF later, but poor sales caused them to move it up
While a CF version was planned all along to be released later, I don't think anyone expected it to be released only 2 weeks after the full version
Why the hell not? If someone wasn't going to buy the $60 version releasing the free version so they can pay $4 for their favorite character and hop online is money that you otherwise literally wouldn't have. Building engagement with your product is the long term goal here.
Because DoA5's CF took like a year after it came out (along side Ultimate), and prerelease interviews for DoA6 stated it was coming eventually and that concrete details were still being worked out, so a lot of people assumed that meant months and not that it would be shadowdropped 2 weeks after the full release
I've already read this interview, and I'm not sure what you're trying to say
Given that Core Fighters popped up on XBL weeks back, and the wording used there, I'm not really surprised Core Fighters is out now. I expected it within the first month at some point.
DoA isnt a hugely popular fighting game? Never has been.
Shimbori said theyd be happy to sell a million copies.
