Top-Heavy Fighters Return
Dead or Alive 2 is announced for Sega's Naomi arcade board.
Tecmo has finally lifted the curtain on the sequel to its gravity-defying fighter. Dead or Alive 2 is being developed on the Naomi board and will appear at arcades sometime next year (although some suggest it could make it before year's end).
This is great news for fans of the original title as well as potential Dreamcast owners who will be treated to what is guaranteed to be a perfect arcade translation.
The pictures released so far show three familiar faces from the first game, and they are Kasumi (the female ninja), Bass (the Hulk Hogan look-a-like), and Ayane (the PlayStation version's hidden character). The graphics look phenomenal with great detail in both the characters and backgrounds.
The earth (among other things) will shake when DOA 2 is released.
