The PlayStation Dead or Alive has quite some differences compared to the Saturn and arcade versions including revamped fighting gameplay, graphical changes, new music, new stages, and two new characters: Ayane and Bass Armstrong.

Oddly, this and DOA2 Hardcore were the only fighting games in the series to be released on Sony consoles until Dead or Alive 5 a good 12 years later.

Regional Differences

In the European version, the credits for the ending movie loses the various sparring matches that are featured in the second half of the ending movie for the Japanese and North American versions. Among some minor changes, some of the character images are rearranged and the sound effects and music composer credits are lost.

The Japanese and North American ending movies are largely the same, save for the correcting of some Engrish credit titles and the name change of the Character Modeler credit from "NAVY 1208 NAKAKURA" to "Yasushi NAKAKURA".
