Dead or Alive 5 director, Yohei Shimbori, says that Gen Fu is even more of a close-range fighter than he’s been in the past. “Once you get the hang of his combos, you’ll see a huge jump in how strong he can be,” Shimbori assures.

Pai is described as a character whose quick movement and special moves set her apart from the others. Shimbori shares: “For holds, she’s all about frame advantage, so it’s important to focus on following up with either her guaranteed combos or other attacks.”

 

Dead or Alive 5 will be released on September 25th in North America and September 28th in Europe.
