Team Ninja “might” be really upset and angry over all the nudity mods for the PC-version of “Dead or Alive 5: Last Round”. But they may not be as angry over the fact that the PC-players can play as Ryo Hazuki (Shenmue) in DOA5: Last Round”.

Because Jacky (a DOA 5 character) has been transformed into Ryo Hazuki. And Akira (also a DOA5 character) has become Ryo´s arch nemesis Lan Di.

And it´s all thanks to the modder Esppiral from shenmuedojo.

And this is what he/she had to say about Ryo Hazuki joining the DOA5: Last Round roster:

“Have you ever wanted a Shenmue fighting game? You already know it won’t happen, EVER!

But we can always mod existing games to fulfill our deepest dreams 😉 So I decided to mod Dead or Alive Last Round for PC, it is just a retexture, (until someone decrypt the game and thus we can make real character swaps)

So far I’ve manage to retextured:

Jacky as Ryo
Akira as Lan Di.
The Dojo as the Dojo lol.

Everything using (edited) and some Magic™ xD” – Esppiral

So what do you guys/girls think about this? Me, i´m super happy over the fact that i may now play as Ryo Hazuki in DOA5!
