KOEI TECMO AMERICA RELEASES OFFICIAL PRESS KIT FROM TOKYO GAME SHOW 2014
KOEI TECMO America has today released the assets and materials from their official Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2014 press kit. The titles within reflect titles that are scheduled for release in North America.
As these titles are newly announced for Japan, there is very little information available at this time for the western availabilities. Official information and assets will be shared as they become available.

BLADESTORM: Nightmare (working title) follows Bladestorm: the Hundred Years War, which was released in 2007 on PS3 and X360.

DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round marks the last instalment of DOA5, and the debut of the series on the PS4 and Xbox One platforms. While the core modes remain the same, this game will render in High Def (1080p/60fps) and will feature new additional content.
*At TGS, a brand new level for DEAD OR ALIVE 5 Last Round was revealed. Titled “The Danger Zone”, this classic stage from the original Dead or Alive returns, fully upgraded for the next generation! The eerily luminescent blue floor panels spanning this level aren’t just eye candy. Rigged with explosives which are set off whenever a fighter hits the ground, they play a strategic role in how players will utilize the level itself as a weapon against their adversaries. If used correctly, opponents won’t have a moment to catch their breath amidst the ensuing chaos.
