Dead or Alive 6 Last Round is a re-release of the 2019 fighting game, launched on June 25, 2026, for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, with a free-to-play version and a full digital edition. Post-launch DLC support began on July 2, 2026, with a roadmap of weekly costume packs through July.
Koei Tecmo released Dead or Alive 6 Last Round on June 25, 2026, as a re-release of the 2019 fighting game optimized for current hardware. The game launched on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, with both a free-to-play base version and a standard digital-only edition priced at 6,380 yen. The re-release includes 29 playable characters, new costumes, a photo mode, and five previously DLC characters available from the start: Nyotengu, Phase 4, Momiji, Rachel, and Tamaki.
However, collaboration characters Mai Shiranui and Kula Diamond from The King of Fighters XIV require a separate purchase of usage rights, which became available as DLC on launch day. Owners of the original Dead or Alive 6 can carry over game progress and most items, but the collaboration characters' usage rights and costumes are not transferable. Pre-orders that included a Marie Rose costume and hairstyle ended on June 24.
Post-launch support began on July 2, 2026, with the first DLC pack: the Marie Rose Knight of Roses Set, which includes four exclusive color-variant costumes priced at 3,300 yen for the set or 1,320 yen each. A July roadmap promises three more weekly costume packs for Kasumi, NiCO, and Tamaki. A collaboration campaign with Dead or Alive Xtreme Venus Vacation ran from May 27 to June 10, 2026, offering login bonuses, SSR swimsuits, and event missions.
