Dead or Alive 5 is a 3D fighting game developed by Team NINJA, released in 2012 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The fifth mainline entry in the Dead or Alive series, it marked the franchise's first multi-platform release since Dead or Alive 2 and its debut on PlayStation 3. The game introduces several new gameplay mechanics alongside a visual overhaul that adopts a more realistic aesthetic compared to earlier installments. A notable addition is the inclusion of guest fighters from Sega's Virtua Fighter series. The story mode is set two years after Dead or Alive 4, weaving together the individual narratives of multiple characters as they become entangled in a new DOA tournament while the search for Kasumi's clone continues. The interrelated storytelling across characters provides context for the roster's various motivations and confrontations throughout the game.
