Dead or Alive 5: Last Round will be making the series’ debut appearance on the PC when it arrives later this February on Steam. However, the game’s director Yohei Shimbori expressed concern about the PC gaming community’s penchant for modding games.
"We have to deal with mod issues from an IP holder perspective," Shimbori said in an interview with MCV. "We would like to ask PC users to play our game in good moral and manner. Otherwise, we won't be able to release a title for PC again."
Shimbori was certainly referring to how the community made sex and nude character modifications for games on the PC.
“Our characters, male and female alike, are created in a fantasy setting and are using extraordinary abilities to compete with each other in a clearly light-hearted, over-the-top universe,” Shimbori continued.
“Their abilities are very balanced and we want to present all of them as dynamic, strong, sexy and confident.”
So the message to modders is simple: play nice or we’ll never get to see another Dead or Alive title on the PC.
