Tecmo’s Dead or Alive 5Ultimate Arcade‘s most recent trailer gives a small glimpse of its newest fighter: a Gothic Lolita named Marie Rose.

The mysterious blonde specializes in the Russian martial arts known as systema — a hand-to-hand combat technique that focuses on controlling the six body levers (neck, elbows,waist, knees, shoulders, and ankles) through striking and pressure pointapplication.

Currently, the latest iteration of Dead or Alive 5 Ultimateis set to release in Japanese arcades this winter. While there is no confirmation that the latest edition to the game’s roster will come to home consoles — either in anotherversionof the game or as DLC — if Tecmo’s track record for releasingadditionalcontent for the series is any indication, then I’m willing to bet we’ll see Marie Rose in our homes soon enough.
