Microsoft has today confirmed that Dead or Alive 4, for the Xbox 360, will be unleashed on the UK on January 27th. The release will be supported by a TV ad campaign that has already begun, showing off the undeniable beauty of Tecmo's digitally enhanced, erm, polygons..?

Expect to find new characters, outfits and even hairstyles, with Xbox Live support allowing you to battle friend or foe in one-off battles or full scale tournaments.

The battle system has also been revamped with a greater emphasis on strategy, knowledge of your character and a new, more challenging, countering system.

Look out for our review soon!
