Koei Tecmo has teamed up with one of my favorite Japanese RPG developers to create a set of Dead or Alive 5: Last Round costumes based on the delightful costume designs from the Atelier series and other Gust games. I’d almost pay $32 for them. Almost.
Kasumi and friends decked out in outfits from the Atelier series, Ciel Nosurge and Nights of Azure adds a new level of charm to the latest entry in the fighting game franchise, and maybe a little bit of respectability (okay, maybe not that one Nights of Azure outfit).
That said, there is no way in hell I am spending $31.99 on a set of fighting game costumes. I love a good crossover collaboration, but I don’t love it this much. Do people actually buy these things?
