Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation Celebrates Nagisa’s Birthday With Microtransactions Aplenty

It’s already May 5 in Japan, which means that it’s the birthday of one of Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation’s original girls, Nagisa.

If you follow the game, you likely know the drill. Koei Tecmo and DMM are celebrating Nagisa by introducing a new costume part of a paid-only gacha that grants you an abysmal 0.78% chance of actually getting it. 

Since only one paid gacha isn’t enough, they also brought back last year’s birthday costume, so you have two options to throw money at the game instead of one. Isn’t that awfully nice of them?

Incidentally, the same costume from last year will likely be featured in the celebration of the Steam version in English, which is behind in content by approximately a year, so the new one released today on the Japanese client is likely coming in 2021 on the steam version. 

You can check out a trailer below.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game, Dead or Alive Xtreme: Venus Vacation, is a free-to-play version of Dead or Alive Xtreme, available only for PC.

It recently introduced another new girl, Patty. Funnily, her birthday is unknown, so it’ll be interesting (in a masochistic sort of way) to see how Koei Tecmo and DMM will manage to use the celebration to nickel and dime players.
