Koei Tecmo has opened the official website for its newly announced Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, which will be released in Japan and Asia as Fortune and Venus versions for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita, respectively.
The publisher also kicked off character elections. Koei Tecmo released 15 PlayStation 4 and PS Vita downloadable character themes on the PlayStation Store. The top nine most downloaded characters will be included as playable characters in Dead or Alive Xtreme 3.
The highest downloaded character will get an exclusive costume as a first-print run bonus for the PlayStation 4 version, while the second highest downloaded character will get an exclusive costume as a first-print run bonus for the PS Vita version.
The candidates include:
Lisa Honoka Helena Rachel Mila Momiji Nyotengu Hitomi Lei Fang Kasumi Tina Ayane Marie Rose Kokoro Christie
Voting starts today, August 20, and lasts through Monday, September 9 at 23:59 JST. The results will be announced at the Tokyo Game Show between September 17 and 20 at the Koei Tecmo Games booth.

What are your thoughts on TK essentially making people pay to vote who will and will not make it into the game? Personally not a fan of this practice and hope Marvelous never does this for a SK game.

Yeah, it feels suspicious. TK is known for some...strange business practices; so it doesn't surprise me that they'd do such a thing.

I mean, it's probably the fairest way to do a poll that reaches people that will buy the game. Twitter is good for the sample size and everything but that can also cause revoting. I'm not very sensitive to DLC/corporate shenanigans. I find it whatever. If they did it for SK, I'd have to set up a Japanese account though, so I'd rather not do that. I'm thinking of picking up some dead or alive, mainly due to EV Ayane making me think about it. Should I just start with DOA5 Last Round?

This makes me really upset, some of my favorite characters are also the least liked in the east so I know for sure they wont make the cut Should I just start with DOA5 Last Round? Yes DOA5 Last Round is the full package

Yes DOA5 Last Round is the full package Full package as in the stories from DOA 1-4? Or should I just read up on those? And to add, the way voting is set up is so that the most avid fans who will most likely buy the game are the ones voting. If they did somethinig like Estival Versus' poll, they'd get a much bigger sample size but how many will actually buy the game out of all those votes.

We all know the non-picked characters will join the team by way of dlc later right?
And is the story even relevant to DOA? Isn't it just a tournament?

The story is okay as long as you read it on the wiki since the games don't bother explaining it to you in a way you can understand.

So to get up to date on DOA I should read the wikis and perhaps play DOA 5 LR (provided I have the necessary funds)? Interesting xD

Interesting xD Well you can play Dimensions since it's supposed to cover 1 to 4 but even then I felt they didn't present the story as well as they could and it would just be easier reading about what happened cause that's what I did and I played all the games. Not saying the story is bad, since compared to other fighting games it's actually decent and the characters aren't just simple cardboard cutouts, they have personality but I have no idea why but they always present the story in some incomprehensible way.

Was wondering if the NSA started tapping our prayers as well cause it seems this will be VR compatible!

I played the first one and enjoyed it, so I will most likely get this one too.

TK said not coming west, but I'd be surprised if 2017 rolled around and still saying that.
