DOAXVV: New PRISM Trailer Showcases Romance and Tropics

Koei Tecmo has released a new trailer for the romance game Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation PRISM, expanding on the Team Ninja fighting game series.

The game is currently in development for PS5, PS4, and PC, with a release scheduled for March 27. A special "global version" will be sold in Asia, featuring support for English text.

Players can enjoy mini-games, customize character personas, and soak in the tropical island ambiance. The developers have highlighted various ways to build relationships with the heroines and become fully immersed in the romantic storyline.

Venus Vacation PRISM aims to offer a fresh experience for Dead or Alive fans, delivering a distinct style of gameplay while staying true to the series' unique identity.

Even the most creative expressions have boundaries, as illustrated by recent developments that might seem like fighting fire with fire. Annually, the publisher behind the Dead or Alive series removes approximately 200–300 doujinshi and continues to take down between 2,000 and 3,000 images featuring characters from the fighting games.

For the uninitiated, Dead or Alive is a popular fighting game franchise recognized both for its engaging mechanics and its charismatic heroines, who are often depicted in swimwear during combat. While it's no surprise that fans create adult-oriented content with their favorite characters, the developers have expressed dissatisfaction with this trend, despite their appreciation for fan art in general.
