This is the only Dead or Alive fighting game that never had any method of online play through official means, a PC port with rollback netcode would be incredible!

DOA3, the peak of the series and one of the absolute greatest in the genre is: stuck on OG Xbox, the only one with no online functionality, and is hard to emulate. A true injustice that needs to be righted.
Dead or Alive 3, released during the launch period of the first Xbox, impressed the crowds technically. The Xbox needed a good fighting game for its debut to offer gamers a multi-location experience and a demonstration of the console's capabilities, as was almost a tradition at the time, and the result was, to say the least, brilliant.
