You can download a free version, Dead or Alive 5: Last Round – Core Fighters, which comes with only the basic versus, arcade, training and online game modes, plus four fan-favourite characters to enjoy them with. On the second count, it all depends on how you buy it. What used to look a bit dodgy is now getting desperately cringe-worthy. Sure, there’s a playful, tongue-in-cheek element to it, but we’ve sometimes found Last Round just, well, embarrassing. On the first count, there’s not much defence beyond a feeble ‘well, it’s all a bit of fun, isn’t it?’ With its lingering shots of heaving cleavage, its hyper-sexualised characters and a range of unlockable, alternate costumes that include bunny girl outfits, bikinis, T-shirt/knickers combos and racy evening-wear, it’s safe to say that Dead or Alive 5: Last Round doesn’t exactly do much to boost the cause of feminism. Two things can’t help but dominate the conversation about Dead or Alive 5: Last Round: the series’ slack-jawed, bulging-eyed obsession with the wobblier parts of the female anatomy, and the way it’s being sold this time around.
