Running on a brand new engine, ''Dead or Alive 6'' introduces more refined and realistic visual details, including dynamic facial expressions. Notably, ''[=DOA6=]'' is also BloodierAndGorier compared to the previous games, while averting BeautyIsNeverTarnished, as well becoming TamerAndChaster trying to avoid {{Fanservice}} to focus more on the gameplay. Characters make a fierce grimace as the execute combos, sweat is more prominent than in ''5'', and wounds appear when the characters take damage.
