Lisa and Helena Join Dead or Alive 5's Roster

A video of Brad Wong and Eliot has also surfaced!

Team Ninja has been gradually confirming the fighters who are set to feature in upcoming arcade-fighting title, Dead or Alive 5. The trend continues as the developer has now confirmed that Lisa Hamilton and Helena Douglas will be among those individuals making a welcome return to the franchise.

Lisa Hamilton ("La Mariposa")

Lisa Hamilton, also known as “La Mariposa,” is a former scientist for DOATEC and an accomplished luchadora. Lisa’s unpredictable lucha libre style combines moves she learned while training with friend and fellow DOA competitor Tina Armstrong during high school and her own blend of high-flying kicks. Her unorthodox style makes her a difficult opponent to counter and defend against effectively. Little is known as to why Lisa has returned to the fifth DOA Tournament, but the reemergence DOATEC has once again brought “La Mariposa” back into action

Helena ("Fortune's Heiress")

Helena Douglas, also known as “Fortune's Heiress,” is the current leader of the Dead or Alive Tournament Executive Committee (DOATEC) and the daughter of Fame Douglas, founder of DOATEC. As a famous opera singer and Pi Gua Quan martial artist, Helena’s refined elegance translates into a quick yet graceful fighting style that allows her to pull off smooth windmill-like combinations that overwhelm her opponents. After the apparent destruction of DOATEC after the last tournament, Helena has re-emerged to announce the reformed DOATEC and issue an open invitation to all potential competitors to the fifth Dead or Alive Tournament

Tecmo Koei has also revealed a bunch of screenshots and a new trailer, much of which sees Lisa and Helena in a submerged elevator level titled "Depth".

Last week, Brad Wong and Eliot were confirmed and unveiled in screenshots. The screenshots were also used to showcase a new arena set in China, and the following video clearly aims to do something similar.


Dead or Alive 5 will punch and kick its way onto consoles on September 25th and 28th in North America and Europe respectively

Turns out all of the flatter-chested women in the Dead Or Alive universe were exiled to an island somewhere. None will ever be seen lol.
But if the silence takes you, then I hope it takes me too.

Great to hear Helena will be in it, great tag partner for Christie. Lisa can GTFO though, have never been a fan of either her character or fighting style.

Great! Now that Helena's back in, this game turned into a "will pick up eventually."

They should just slap a tagline on the front of the case "This game has boobs!"

HELENA! NOOOOOOOO! Oh wait, I'm on the wrong game. Never had the opportunity to play a DoA game, anyone recommend them to a casual fighting game player? I'll probably never touch the online unless it's with a friend I'm going against.

I have been a big DOA fan in the past. But when Tomonobu Itagaki was fired by Tecmo, Team Ninja lost their ninja. I hope I am wrong, but this game will probably disappoint DOA fans, much like Ninja Gaiden 3 was a crushing blow to fans of that series. Critic averages: Ninja Gaiden 92.48%, Ninja Gaiden II 81.25%, Ninja Gaiden III 56.54%. Itagaki-san may be arrogant, might be guilty of sexual harassment, but he makes great games. And Team Ninja doesn't seem to know how to make them without him.
I'm bleeding, making me the victor!

Sexy pictures, but no offense--it was a little obvious that Lisa and Helena would be back.

Meh.. Helena and Lisa never was that awesome in my book. Neither looks nor moves wise.
