Line #19 Trivia/DeadOrAlive6


1	* ContentLeak: The second ''[[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters KOF]]'' GuestFighter is Kula Diamond. The game developers may have named her SNK to avoid data mining, [[https://aminoapps.com/c/kof-latinoamerica/page/blog/kula-diamond-en-doa6/Z6DV_ZxPIBuxBLoQNYrnZlNnV8pDMWpWY but they forgot to hide her attack moves]]. Kula's reveal trailer in June 2019 doesn't come off as a surprise, given many people have [[IKnewIt already predicted it was her]] even if she wasn't leaked.
2	* DuelingGames: With ''VideoGame/SoulcaliburVI'', both being 3D fighters and the first mainline entry in each other's series since 2012. The difference being ''[=DOA6=]'' is choosing to drastically [[TamerAndChaster tone down its sex appeal]], while ''SCVI'' [[HotterAndSexier is embracing it]]. ''[=DOA6=]'' lost overall, falling short of ''SCVI'' in sales, reception and recognition both within the MediaNotes/FightingGameCommunity and outside of it.
3	* FranchiseKiller: The "core values" incident, the DLC hair color debacle and again the overpriced season pass, and finally Yohei Shimbori leaving Team Ninja and the content updates stopping in 2020, the combination of all these controversies are likely the reason that ''Dead or Alive 6'' has so far been last one of the franchise.
4	* FlipFlopOfGod:
5	** Yohei Shimbori has gone back and forth on whether or not ''Dead or Alive 6'' would be TamerAndChaster, in one interview supporting it and the other not, almost regularly. In the end, the ''base'' costumes are tamer... but everything else isn't, and the JigglePhysics options are still very much there. Any toning down amounted to little, as ''DOA'' would still get the usual M-rating for the fanservice and, rather infamously, the "Core Values" fiasco where their tournament stream at EVO Japan 2019 was closed due to the sexual nature of it.
6	** They also mentioned that they had no intentions of including any of the Xtreme-exclusive women into the core series. Come March 10, 2020, Tamaki has been officially released as a playable character.
7	* TheOriginalDarrin: Ayane went from Brittney Lee Harvey to her voice actress from the VideoGame/NinjaGaiden series, Creator/JaniceKawaye.
8	* TheOtherDarrin: In the English dub, there are a few casting changes obviously for [[UsefulNotes/UnionsInHollywood union-reasons]]:
9	** Ryu Hayabusa is now being voiced by Creator/DaveBMitchell instead of Creator/TroyBaker.
10	** Raidou is now voiced by Creator/JamiesonPrice instead of John Snyder.
11	** Christie is definitely not being voiced by Creator/LauraBailey.
12	** Rig has gone from Creator/LiamOBrien to Creator/KyleHebert.
13	** Mila is now voiced by Amber Connor with her previous voice actress still unknown.
14	* PosthumousCredit: Creator/UnshoIshizuka managed to finish his lines for Brad Wong before passing away on August 13, 2018 at the age of 67 due to esophageal cancer.
15	* PromotedFanboy:
16	** Similar to what Capcom has done for ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'', Team NINJA hired a tournament player, Emmanuel "Master" Rodriguez to be the community manager in time for the announcement of ''Dead Or Alive 6''.
17	** Being a former competitive [[FightingGame fighting game player]] and fan of the genre, Creator/FayeMata being able to voice a fighting game character[[note]]more specifically [=NiCO=][[/note]] was a wish that has finally been granted.
18	* SequelGap: The previous game, ''VideoGame/DeadOrAlive5'', was released back in 2012 with this game releasing in 2019. A gap of 7 years. ''[[HistoryRepeats Again]]''.
