Tecmo Koei has confirmed the release date for Dead or Alive 5: Last Round in North America and Europe.

The final update to the fifth iteration of the brawler will arrive on February 17th in North America and February 20th in Europe, across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.


The current generation versions on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One will cost $39.99 dollars, while both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 will set you back $29.99 dollars.

If you pre-order the game in North America via Gamestop, you’ll get the “Ninja” costume for Ayane, Hayabusa, Hayate, and Kasumi, and the Aloha costume for Ayane, Hitomi, Kasumi, and Mila. If you opt for Best Buy or Amazon, those come with the “Showstopper” costumes for Christie, Helena, Lisa, and Tina, and finally the “Beach Party” costumes for Kokoro, Leifang, Momiji, and Rachel.

Europeans who pre-order the title at GAME will get the Ninja and Aloha costumes, while those who go to ShopTo.net get the Ninja and Showstopper costumes. Finally, both Centresoft and independent (mom-and-pop) store pre-orders will get the Ninja and Beach Party costumes as well.

You’ll be able to try the game for free on both the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. The PlayStation 4 allows you to play with the core fighters Ayane, Hayate, Kasumi, and Ryu Hayabusa, and almost every game mode enabled. You can, of course, upgrade the free version with paid content, if you’re so inclined. On the Xbox One, you’ll be able to try the game out for free as well, and it features the same accessibility as the Playstation 4’s roster, but you won’t be able to upgrade that particular install; instead, you have to purchase the “Core Fighters” pack, for $4.99, which gives you Hitomi, Tina, Jann Lee, and Bass.

Here’s the kicker—Koei Tecmo is declaring that fans who own any of the previous versions can transfer their unlocked titles, costumes, and Story Mode progress to the new versions, although extra characters, store mode, and other features are accessible for an undisclosed cost.
