Tecmo Koei have detailed the Cross Platform support between Dead Or Alive 5 on the PS3 and Dead Or Alive 5 Plus on The PS Vita. the PS Vita version comes out on 22nd March and the cross Platform support includes:
CROSS-PLATFORM PLAY
§
Hardware icons will appear next to player names in cross-platform
battles to indicate whether they are playing on PS3 or PS Vita
§
Cross-platform battles will run at 60fps on both platforms so there
will be no lag or slowdown even when playing on different devices
§
All characters that have been unlocked on PS3 can be used on PS
Vita—and vice versa
§
In-game rankings will show whether players are on PS Vita or PS3
CROSS-PLATFORM DLC
§
Using the PS Store, DLC purchases will be shared across both
platforms so players can pay a single price while getting dual
platform use
§
Over 100 costumes have been delivered to date as DLC, and the
cross-platform transfer allows players to preserve their collection
while getting new gameplay options with DEAD OR ALIVE 5 PLUS
on PS Vita
CROSS-PLATFORM GAME
SAVES AND UNLOCKED CONTENT
§
Saved games on PS Vita or PS3 can be used on the other platform, so
gamers can play on the go and then bring their progress back to the
console (or vice versa)
§
All unlocked content on one platform is available on the other
platform; for instance, Tina’s Legend Swimsuit earned by completing
Legend mode in Arcade mode without continuing will be available on
PS3 if earned on PS Vita
§
“Any new stages for DOA5 on PS3, will
also be available on DEAD OR ALIVE 5 PLUS for PS Vita”
