Senran Kagura: Estival Versus Is Getting DOA’s Ayane As Playable Character

Japan just saw the release of the latest in the Senran Kagura series this week with Senran Kagura: Estival Versus, as the series jumped to the PlayStation 4 for the first time, in addition to a release on PS Vita. We also learned recently that Dead or Alive 5: Last Round was getting special costumes based on the Senran Kagura series in honor of that release, but now we know that it was a two-sided deal as it has been revealed that Senran Kagura: Estival Versus is getting a classic Dead or Alive character in return.

Ayane is one of the most iconic of the Dead or Alive series, also making appearances in the Ninja Gaiden franchise, so her long time ninja based roots have now led her to appear in Senran Kagura: Estival Versus, according to Gematsu.

This isn’t the only special DLC coming to Senran Kagura: Estival Versus either, as it was also revealed that three other playable characters were coming from the Battle Vixens anime, including Hakufu Sonsaku, Uncho Kan’u, and Housen Ryofu. No pricing or release date details were revealed for either though.

Senran Kagura: Estival Versus just released on PS4 and a leaked English trophy list would make you think it would be coming West in the future, especially with all other games making it here eventually. Stay tuned for any information on that in the future and hopefully we will get both of the team-up DLC as well.
