Quote:
Yasuda, the president of Tecmo, announced to Bloomberg Japan today that Team NINJA with it's new leader has been appointed to work on a big budget title game with a new genre, and is expected to be completed next year.

With the absence of Itagaki, the team has taken on a new motto for game development, "New Title, New Genre, New Location, New Leader".

Team NINJA's new game will not follow Tecmo's past game genres like Fighting, Action, or Horror Adventure; instead they will focus on a brand new genre and focus on targeting the western audience, though details can not be disclosed at this time...

Strange they were already doing good job targeting the west through working with MS despite using fighting and action.

I hope this doesn't translate into Ninjas of War, modern cybernetic ninjas with BFG3000s do in battle on a post-apocalyptic earth, against horrifying aliens in thrilling squad-based combat.

That confirms no DOA5 anytime soon.










I still wonder about DOA3U, though . . .

It's over.

DOA is done.

We're finished.

Ditching IPs that made you millions is usually suicide, unless they're trying to go on their team name alone. Team Ninja has multiple teams, I'm sure they haven't scrapped the idea of games that will surely make them money. Maybe in a couple or a few years, you never know.

Probably. I'm guessing it'll come out with the launch of the next Xbox like DOA3 and DOA4 did, whenever that will be. You never count out something that makes you money.

I doubt they are counting out DOA5. Just making a new game and then will start on DOA5. Itagaki and crew probably took the code with them or something but I am just speculating about that.

Oh well when this bombs we'll get our DOA5 to make up for that epic loss.

Ummm. . . Did the SF community die after 3s? Why do we need to stop playing the game just because there won't be a new one any time soon? Were you all playing this game in the hopes that there will be another one coming soon? Don't be dumb guys.

I have just bought another completely new disc of DOA4.
Because my orginal disc is dirty and I'm afraid it will be
damaged later. I can't suffer from no DOA to play.

They could easily be working on a DOA5, it just sounds like they're making another team for the west. Team Ninja is pretty big.

It will be,

Itagaki said before he left he wanted to make a game based of WW2, trough the eyes of the japanese.

It will be a FPS/Shooter with the story going back to WW2. . . I'm asuming teamNinja will continue this game.
