Take a cold shower, because “romance adventure game” Venus Vacation Prism: Dead or Alive Xtreme has been delayed three weeks. Originally due out on 6th March in Japan and Asia, it’ll now strut to PS5 and PS4 on 27th March.
“We have been preparing to deliver the first immersive romantic adventure game in the franchise with high quality that will satisfy everyone,” producer Yasunori Sakuda, as reported by Gematsu.
“However, in order to provide the best possible experience with the Venuses, we have decided that we need to increase the volume of the game by adding more episodes and improving the quality without compromise. Although we are already working on these measures and are close to completion, we have decided to change the release date as announced.”

Obviously, the delay is only minor, and it’s worth reiterating here that a western release of the title is not planned. Instead, the Asian version – available to pre-order from Play Asia – will include English subtitles.
There’s a new trailer embedded above which features gameplay footage from the final product. Maybe don’t watch this one in a public space, though, eh?

Can they go back to making fighting games...
Anyone who really curious to try DoAX should just make a PSN Asia account and download the F2P DoAX3: Fortune. That version has staple DoA girls like Kasumi, Ayane, Hitomi, Helena, Kokoro, and Nyotengu although you can only try Kasumi while other girls locked behind paywall.
I can see why the team embraced the possibility of rebranding themselves as Tickle The Trigger.
I can wait. Let them cook. (Knew bout this delay a week ago)
It's so weird seeing a game like this being developed and then seeing news that the devs remove thousands of fan art yearly because the characters are like daughters to them.
The titties are nice and all but the generic anime heads are killing it for me.
I suppose folks will just have to, erm, entertain themselves until it arrives.
But will it have an after hours casino..
No Hitomi, Ayane, Christie or Kasumi. No buy.
@Nepp67 It is very bizarre when the last Xtreme game had the ability to blow up swimsuits, peek on the girls when changing, the jiggle physics, the fact that high schoolers could pole dance for the player.
But I also have sadly seen how nasty some of the fan art and mods can get for this series.
They all look like kids. My favorite DoA character was always Kasumi.
Another 3 weeks worth of edging for the fans 😄
“However, in order to provide the best possible experience with the Venuses, we have decided that we need to increase the volume..."
gasp
"of the game by adding..."
Oh good. Increase the volume of something else and the poor girls wouldn't be able to stand up!
Can't wait to up my dating game
Ninja Gaiden 2 Black was a fun side-project for Team Ninja, very likely for younger staff to get their feet wet in the culture (which would explain the bizarre (for the team) engine choice), Ninja Gaiden 4 is a full on Platinum project, with Team Ninja supervision. So THIS is their bread & butter, big budget, in-house engine, full attention game for the year & I love that for them.
With the fighting genre getting massive kick from every known IP going you'd think Soul Calibur, and DoA would announce a new game. I played DoA 2 on PS2 that was my last game but I loved it to bits trying to find a copy actually for my PS2 collection.
Sorry GTA 6, this is the new front runner for game of the year.
@Nakatomi_Uk The reason why there's no new Soul Calibur and DoA because SC 6 and DoA 6 was a flop according to Bamco and KT. iirc SC 6 sold 2 million copies and for DoA 6 i don't know how many because they mixed with download numbers from F2P version. On the other hand, DoAX3 keeps printing money for KT.
I myself didn't buy DoA 6, tried the F2P version and didn't like the gameplay. But i bought SC 6 on day 1 and while it has solid gameplay but the netcode is just bad which gave negative impact for the game lifespan.
@Nakatomi_Uk massive kick ?
where’s marvel vs capcom, DBFZ 2, Blazblue, Injustass 3? it’s only SF and Tekken that’s really relevant . MK1 flopped & GuiltyGear is even more niche than it already was
@nomither6 Soul Caliber 2 will always be my fighting game goat.
@Oram77 never played SC2 & hardly played 6; i guess the theme of it with fantasy and swords in old times puts me off. SC2 is the one with exclusive characters on each platform right? that was pretty cool, i miss when games did that.
My fighting game goat would have to be (super/ultra)Street Fighter 4(arcade) . I freaking love SF4 so much, everything about it is near perfection & the quintessential street fighter game .
Ah, blue balls the game. “Erotic” games with no nudity make no sense to me. Give me porn or give me a proper video game. Weak games and weak porn don’t exceed the sums of their parts, I never understood them.
Still haven't got a disc drive for my Pro so gives Sony a bit longer to (finally) restock it. Noticed the eBay prices coming down but would rather buy direct from a retailer.
Bitterly dissapointing
@Sweetz To each their own. I love it when a game tries to balance out both, Tomb Raider and Stellar Blade come to mind. Also, dead or alive series etc.. etc..
The difference between those games I listed and Venus vacation prism, is that VVP is a dating sim with little or no action. It can be a nice game to relax 😌
Aside from Xtreme Beach Volleyball, I never cared for the DoA spinoffs. Really wish they'd just make DoA 7 already.
Id rather bone kasumi but honoka is her cousin so ill fap to her i guess.
