First up is **Dead or Alive 6 Last Round**, a definitive, optimized version of the sixth installment coming to **PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on June 25, 2026**.

This isn't just a simple port. Team Ninja has polished the game for modern hardware and packed it with content:

- **The Roster:** You get 29 playable characters right out of the gate. This includes the original 24 plus five fan favourites previously locked behind DLC: **Nyotengu, Phase 4, Tamaki, Momiji, and Rachel**.
- **The Look:** Expect upgraded visuals and a brand-new **Photo Mode**. You can freely position characters, change their facial expressions, and even adjust details like sweat and dirt to capture the perfect action shot.
- **Free-to-Play is Back:** Just like previous entries, a **Core Fighters** version will launch simultaneously. It features four iconic characters—**Kasumi, NiCO, Marie Rose, and Honoka**—and allows full access to online play, DOA Quest, and the new Photo Mode.

### What About the Switch 2?

While the official announcement only listed PS5, Xbox, and Steam, the question of a **Nintendo Switch 2** version is currently the biggest mystery. Team Ninja has a history of supporting Nintendo hardware (remember *DOA: Dimensions*?), and with the Switch 2's recent launch in early 2026, fans are crossing their fingers for a "Round 2" announcement later this year.

## The Real Shocker: A New DOA is in Development

As if a remaster wasn't enough, Hayashi saved the best for last: **Team Ninja has officially begun work on the next mainline Dead or Alive title.**

While details are incredibly scarce, the message was clear: *Dead or Alive 6 Last Round* is the bridge to the future. Whether it will be called *Dead or Alive 7* or a total series reboot remains to be seen, but the developers confirmed that this 30th-anniversary project is the start of a "new chapter" for the franchise.
