Dead Or Alive: Paradise (PSP)

The ladies of Dead or Alive hit the beach in this portable mini-game collection from beat-‘em-up legend Team Ninja.

Based on the Dead or Alive Xtreme series originally released on consoles, Dead or Alive - Paradise sees players visit New Zack Island for a much-deserved two week holiday. The female line-up of the Dead or Alive series make a welcome return, each wearing their trademark revealing outfits during a series of light-hearted mini-games. Fans of the original fighting series will recognise Kasumi, Ayane, Lei Fang, Helena, Christine and Tina as they strut across the beach.

Once players have settled into New Zack Island, a selection of holiday activities will keep them occupied, including beach volleyball, pool hopping and photo shoots. A fully revamped casino run by Rio also makes an appearance, where players can earn extra ZACK currency to spend on clothes and gadgets to give to the Dead or Alive girls. The more presents they receive, the closer their bond with the player will become.

Dead or Alive - Paradise keeps the tongue-in-cheek humour and over-the-top style of the Dead or Alive series, replacing its combat with a more laid-back mini-game selection.
