A collector's edition will also be available, which will include an "Unmask" art book, a soundtrack CD, a unique "Duel of the Masked" figurine and a Dead or Alive 5 four-character demo.

Dead or Alive 5 will also be available as pre-order bonuses for Ninja Gaiden 3's standard edition at select retailers.
