While Dead or Alive fans on consoles will be receiving Marie Rose this March, Tecmo Koei and Team Ninja are set to provide yet another new fighter to the arcade version of Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate. Phase-4, a Kasumi clone created by series antagonist Victor Donovan’s MIST weapons development organization, will be made available in the title sometime this spring.

Phase-4 employs the same Mugen Tenshin Ninjutsu fighting style as Kasumi, with a bit of added variety due to her status as a living weapon. As the latest prototype model of MIST’s Project Alpha, she has been pushed into combat as part of a testing phase.

We are currently in the process of translating further information from the original Famitsu article, so stay tuned. For now, feel free to check out the gallery of images below and let us know what you think of Phase-4.

Additionally, Famitsu also provided a new Marie Rose trailer and screenshots of a few costumes coming her way with the console release, so be sure to visit their original article for more.
