If you play a match in Quest and fail to complete a challenge, a prompt will appear in the menu giving you the option to see a tutorial on how to do a move or combo that will help you succeed the next time.
DEAD OR ALIVE 6 RACHEL COSTUMES SERIES
In addition to three training modes - standard “free training,” character-specific command training, and combo challenges - the non-story single-player mode, DOA Quest, is a series of challenges that push you to learn and practice advanced moves and techniques to earn in-game currency and unlock extra costumes for characters.
“In general, Dead or Alive 6 goes to great lengths to get you ready to fight online. Or you can spend your entire meter on a Break Blow attack, which works very much like the Power Blows that they replace from Dead or Alives past in that it interrupts any attack, cuts to a brief cinematic, and deals massive damage. You can spend some of it on a Break Hold, which (unlike a normal attack-specific hold) will counter any strike so long as you time it right and gives you a much better chance of getting out of a combo and shifting the momentum in your favor. The two-tiered meter, as the name implies, regulates a set of attacks that can set up an assault or interrupt your opponent’s attacks, regardless of what they throw at you. This new escape mechanics are the biggest and most helpful gameplay changes in Dead or Alive 6, and revolve around the fighters’ special bar, which is now called the Break Gauge. But Dead or Alive 6 throws you a lifeline to alleviate that feeling of being trapped with new moves that help you get out of those situations when you start to feel like a punching bag. That said, this leads to situations where – especially against an experienced opponent who can string together long, juggling combos – a fight can feel even more one-sided than most fighting games. Whether you button mash or play tactically to take advantage of holds and throws, the best defense is a good offense. Short combos and environmental hazards like explosives make it easy to set up opportunities to juggle opponents and do a tremendous amount of damage.
“Despite that defensively minded foundation, Dead or Alive 6 is very aggressive, even by fighting game standards. From determined tournament fighters in training to lovably foolish drunken masters and melodramatic ninja warriors and assassins, every contestant has a strong vibe and is itching to fight, which makes it easy and fun to hop in and wail on somebody.
Its storytelling, while not as expansive or novel as a Mortal Kombat or Injustice, gives its roster an essential sense of character. Its single-player modes are predisposed to training you up past what you’ll learn by simply fighting AI opponents. It’s polished, it’s fun, and it’s keeping the series alive and active without rocking the boat too much.Viewed through that lens, Dead or Alive 6 deftly blends fresh and familiar to appease long-standing fans while offering an interesting array of single-player modes that serves as an onramp to competitive play online. Dead or Alive 6 does not deviate from that top-level formula at all, but manages to spice things up with some interesting changes spread throughout its gameplay and modes. Women (and some men) in suggestive costumes beat each other up and down in a fast-paced 3D fighter built on a basic but sound tactical framework. After more than 20 years, five mainline games, and plenty of special editions and spinoffs, the Dead or Alive series of fighting games is very much a known quantity.
