The “what we’re showing at E3” info keeps flowing into our inboxes today, with Tecmo Koei being the latest publisher to outline what they’ll have on display at next week’s trade show. The game acting as the booth’s anchor will obviously be Dead or Alive 5, as you’ll see below, but Tecmo will also be showing some partner games.
The following titles and events will topline Tecmo Koei’s strong presence at E3:
DEAD OR ALIVE 5 (Hands on Demo)
DEAD OR ALIVE 5 incorporates a variety of martial arts fighting techniques into its signature fighting style to create a new generation of intense DEAD OR ALIVE combat. Players will once again take on the roles of the cast of DEAD OR ALIVE fighters, along with new contenders such as Virtua Fighter’s Akira Yuki, in an action-packed brawler set in visually striking locations from around the world. The famed DEAD OR ALIVE hand-to-hand combat returns in DOA5, supported by new 3D stages that change as the match progresses. Created by TEAM NINJA, the fighting game will ship for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in September.
DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Tournament (Exclusive Live Event)
Kicking off at E3 with an exciting competition, the IPL’s DEAD OR ALIVE 5 pro gaming tournament will continue throughout the summer culminating in the crowning of the “I’m a Fighter” world champion timed to the game’s September launch. The E3 tournament will qualify the first set of finalists for tournament series to find the ultimate DOA5 master, with each match being streamed on large screens and live broadcast on https://doa.ign.com. Aspiring fighters are encouraged to sign up at the TKA booth in the South Hall, Booth #2047. Come early for the best viewing spots as crowds are sure to gather.
